The reading for Tuesday, February 21, 2023 , is Deuteronomy 17 - 19
Here we see that Israel will want a king. I think this is the first time we see that.
When it talks about false prophets here, I am reminded that we will see quite a few off them telling kings what the kings want to hear.
When I listen today to the part about witnesses at the end of the reading, I am reminded that Jesus was testified against by false witnesses. I am also realizing that these laws about who must die/capital punishment are part of what lead to death on the cross to fulfill what is done over and over by animal sacrifice.
