Deuteronomy 6:20-24
Exhortation to Remember the Past
6:20 When your children ask you later on, “What are the stipulations, statutes, and ordinances that the Lord our God commanded you?”
6:21 you must say to them, “We were Pharaoh’s slaves in Egypt, but the Lord brought us out of Egypt in a powerful way.
6:22 And he brought signs and great, devastating wonders on Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on his whole family before our very eyes.
6:23 He delivered us from there so that he could give us the land he had promised our ancestors.
6:24 The Lord commanded us to obey all these statutes and to revere him so that it may always go well for us and he may preserve us, as he has to this day.

will be a reminder to you.
When your children ask someday, ‘Why are these stones important to you?’
Joshua 4:21-24
4:21 He told the Israelites, “When your children someday ask their fathers, ‘What do these stones represent?’
4:22 explain
to your children, ‘Israel crossed the Jordan River
on dry ground.’
4:23 For the
Lord your God dried up the water of the Jordan before you while you crossed over. It was just like when the
Lord your God dried up the Red Sea before us while we crossed it.
4:24 He has done this so
all the nations
of the earth might recognize the
Lord’s power
and so you might always obey
the
Lord your God.”
