Cheating God

Note that there were Israelites who heard God's complaints and knew He was right. Because of their fear (of offending) the Lord, they humbled themselves and turned their backs on corrupt practices. They heard what God said, meaning they agreed with Him and took it to heart. In essence, they repented of their previous attitudes and chose to have a renewed attitude. To help them remember, they wrote a book of remembrance and they took the time to meditate on His Words.
