Deuteronomy 8-9
He then gave them the commands that they were to keep (Deuteronomy 5 26). Interspersed through these commands was the repeated exhortation to “love YHWH your God with all your heart and all your soul and all your mind.” They were not to simply keep the rules, but they were to love to keep the rules for they were the desires of the heart of God. And as His unique representative, they were very privileged. If they represented God from their heart, He would reward them beyond their wildest imagination. God’s desires were to be their desires.
