Torah Reading: Deuteronomy 7:12–11:25
This Torah portion lists blessings for obeying God and warnings against forgetting God in times of prosperity. Israel is then told not to think that God is giving them the Promised Land because of their righteousness. They are reminded of the times they provoked God through their rebellion and of the events surrounding the golden calf incident. Then they are exhorted to “circumcise” their hearts and follow God’s commandments. The Parashah concludes with more promised blessings for obedience.
