Herein is Love - Deuteronomy: A Commentary for Children

Book Description:

Israel would soon be marching into the Promised Land, but Moses would no longer be with them. Before his People advanced into enemy territory, Moses wanted to give them a secret weapon to ensure their victory. It was not a radical military strategy or some strange new artillery, no, the secret to their success would be summarized in a single word: Obedience. Obedience to laws God had made; read and learn the instructions for them and us.

The Herein is Love series of books provides what children need-solid truths to grow in. In these books, Nancy Ganz draws out the beautiful implications of the Old Testament narrative that are foundational for Christian faith.

The beginning books of the Bible are essential to our understanding of God's redemptive story. The Herein is Love series creatively focuses our attention on the events that bring this story to life, combining the richness of literature and the depth of a commentary.
Teacher's Guides for each book help parents and Sunday School teachers discuss the lessons with children. The Genesis Teacher's Guide is available as a PDF file, Teacher's Guides for Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy can be found in the back of the corresponding book.

It reads as one who delights in the greatness and love of God; one who has childlike respect for God. And this also commends itself to children.
