Day 72: God is Editing Israel’s Economy and Social Laws

Today we read Numbers 23, Deuteronomy 24-25, and Psalm 106. This is a story that reminds us that God is sovereign over all, even nefarious oracles such as Balaam. We learn more about God’s character and His desire for how we live as edits are made to economic and social laws.
