Study Questions:
  1. What does it mean to “fear God”? Is fearing God the same as being afraid of Him?
  2. Why does Deuteronomy repeatedly command God’s people to fear the Lord?
  3. What do “consuming fire” and “jealousy” reveal to us about God’s nature?
  4. Why is God both a God of love and mercy and a God who is a consuming fire and jealous? Are these two aspects contradictory?
