Israel, God’s Special People

14 “You are the children of the Lord your God. When someone dies, you must not cut yourselves or shave your heads[a] to show your sadness. This is because you are different from other people. You belong to the Lord your God. From all the people in the world, the Lord chose you to be his own special people.
