Now here we have the words of a man taught directly by Moses and also by the Lord. Obviously there was no contradiction for the Israelites a generation later. Why then should this interpretation be rejected for your own?
The Lord doesnt force anyone into anything. He gives us a choice. So choose this day whom you will serve.
