Why does God bar Ammon and Moab “forever,” yet command Israel, “do not abhor” Edom or Egypt?
Deuteronomy 23 seems unfair—until you trace the story behind it. Ammon withheld bread and water; Moab hired Balaam to harm Israel. Egypt, despite later oppression, once sheltered Jacob’s family. Scripture reveals God’s long memory: He repays cruelty and honors generational kindness (Isaiah 19). What debts of gratitude do you and your family carry? Who blessed your parents—and how will you return that kindness? Explore the ethic of remembered mercy and why it still shapes disciples today.
