申命记4：15~24
警告人民不可拜偶像
15「所以，你们要分外谨慎；因为耶和华在何烈山从火中对你们说话的那日，你们没有看见什么形像‘’。
16惟恐你们败坏自己，雕刻偶像，仿佛什么男像女像，
17或地上走兽的像，或空中飞鸟的像，
18或地上爬物的像，或地底下水中鱼的像。
19又恐怕你向天举目观看，见耶和华－你的 神为天下万民所摆列的日、月、星，就是天上的万象，自己便被勾引敬拜事奉它。
20耶和华将你们从埃及领出来，脱离铁炉，要特作自己产业的子民，像今日一样。
21耶和华又因你们的缘故向我发怒起誓，必不容我过约旦河，也不容我进入耶和华－你 神所赐你为业的那美地。
22我只得死在这地，不能过约旦河；但你们必过去得那美地。
23你们要谨慎，免得忘记耶和华－你们 神与你们所立的约，为自己雕刻偶像，就是耶和华－你 神所禁止你做的偶像；
24因为耶和华－你的 神乃是烈火，是忌邪的 神。
Idolatry Forbidden
15You saw no form of any kind the day the Lord spoke to you at Horeb out of the fire. Therefore watch yourselves very carefully,
16so that you do not become corrupt and make for yourselves an idol, an image of any shape, whether formed like a man or a woman,
17or like any animal on earth or any bird that flies in the air,
18or like any creature that moves along the ground or any fish in the waters below.
19And when you look up to the sky and see the sun, the moon and the stars—all the heavenly array—do not be enticed into bowing down to them and worshiping things the Lord your God has apportioned to all the nations under heaven.
20But as for you, the Lord took you and brought you out of the iron-smelting furnace, out of Egypt, to be the people of his inheritance, as you now are.
21The Lord was angry with me because of you, and he solemnly swore that I would not cross the Jordan and enter the good land the Lord your God is giving you as your inheritance.
22I will die in this land; I will not cross the Jordan; but you are about to cross over and take possession of that good land.
23Be careful not to forget the covenant of the Lord your God that he made with you; do not make for yourselves an idol in the form of anything the Lord your God has forbidden.
24For the Lord your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.
内容观察

2.摩西解释神是怎样的一位神?(24节)
思考与默想
个人感受
决心与应用
5.在生活中，你可曾过于爱慕哪些人事物，以致让他们变为自己的偶像?为让自己可以单一爱神且专注敬拜祂，你觉得自己可以怎么做?
神是吞灭的火(24节):以此形像强调神的愤怒
忌邪的神(24节):这是一种充满激情的表达，其字源于“面色转红”之意，形容有人企图夺去我们对神的爱时，神对此的感受
