So every generation of Israel is to view itself as standing at the sacred mountain to conclude a covenant with God, and that decisive moment has to be made ever-present. That's a process that's facilitated by the obligation to study, to study the laws, to recite them daily, to teach them to your children: these are instructions that are contained in Deuteronomy.

那么每一代以色列人都将自己看做站在圣山上,与上帝立约的人，于是那个决定性的时刻,被变为了恒久的场景这是通过学习，学习律法,而达成的过程，每天背诵它们，把它们交给你的孩子们：这是申命记中,包含的指示。
