Deuteronomy didn't just repeat the Torah — it rewrote the rules of how humans relate to God. This video explores five radical ideas embedded in Moses' farewell speech: an abstract God beyond physical form, the invention of ordinary slaughter and humanitarian sacrifice, a covenant that collapses time so every generation stands at Sinai, reciprocal love borrowed and transformed from Assyrian treaty language, and a revolutionary reversal of holiness from aspiration to inherent status.
Key concepts covered:
• Name Theology — God dwells in heaven; only God's "shem" (name) dwells in the temple
• Centralization of worship in Jerusalem and the invention of profane slaughter
• The ever-present covenant (Deuteronomy 5:2-3) — every generation is the Sinai generation
• The Shema (Deuteronomy 6:4-9) as reciprocal love, transforming Assyrian vassal treaty language
• Chosenness (bachar) — Israel as God's elected people, grounded in love not merit
• Holiness as status vs. holiness as goal — Deuteronomy vs. the Priestly source (P)
• Torah as a conversation between distinct theological voices, not a monolithic document
• How these ideas live on in daily Jewish practice, from the Shema to the Passover Seder
