Aim: To focus our love and obedience (ultimately) on God, our Father.
Doctrine: If we will heed inferior authorities, we need to especially obey God, our heavenly Father. If some people can follow odd, man-made rules, then cannot God's children obey His living, important word?
Exegesis: The divine logic promoting holy devotion: there is virtue in temporal obedience (vv. 1-11); there is neccessity in ultimate obedience (vv. 12-16); there is reward in all ''obedience'' (vv. 17-19).
Further application: The reasons we dare to disobey God: no ''sight'' of Him fosters atheism, and our flesh disdains His honor.
Key verse: v. 16 ''Surely the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have performed the commandment of their father, which he commanded them, but this people has not obeyed me.''
