We will see that after God spoke the Ten Commandments, which are a summary of the whole duty of man, and after the people trembled from his voice, the Lord gave Moses many ceremonial laws to accompany his moral law. Our text is Exodus 20:22-26. This passage is an introduction to the ceremonial laws.
We will consider these five points:
1. The ceremonial law as a guard against idols.
2. The ceremonial law will provide a way for sinners to approach God.
3. Through the provision of the ceremonial law, God will come to his people to bless them.
4. The need that is exposed through the ceremonial law.
5. The fulfillment of the ceremonial law in Christ.
