Deuteronomy 16: Make Sure They Are Fair

One of the things Israel would have to do in the land of Canaan was to have officials in all the tribes and towns to deal with everyday issues. The fundamental characteristic of these officials was to be that they were to be fair! Read verses 18-20 carefully and note that all of the things Moses said led to this point. We need fair-minded people in leadership positions of all kinds. Character counts!
