What makes something worthy of obedience? Is it their authority? Their character? Their ability to cause harm? What about God? What makes Him worthy of obedience. At the conclusion of the Book of the Covenant where God expands on the Ten Commandments with laws about how His people can conduct themselves in a way that represents Him, God concludes with the promise to go before His people and bring them to the Promised Land. In all this, God shows why He and only He is worthy of worship.
