CHAPTER STUDY WORKSPACE

Deuteronomy 16

Moses reviews the three major pilgrimage feasts—Passover, Weeks, and Tabernacles—and commands Israel’s males to appear before the LORD with gifts according to God’s blessing. The chapter then turns to civil leadership: judges must pursue justice, refuse bribes, and avoid idolatrous objects beside the LORD’s altar.
