No one is above the Law of YeHoVaH. From the king who was commanded to govern according to the Law to the lowest servant, all men in YeHoVaH's Kingdom are subject to the same Law. In this passage of Deuteronomy, YeHoVaH gives Instructions to Moses to give to the Children of Israel about presenting proper sacrifices unto Him, what to do to the person who worshipped idols, and the process of administering the death penalty for the perpetrators. Obeying the Law of YeHoVaH not only protected the people from YeHoVaH's vengeance but it also insured the promise of a long life for generations to come.
