The laws of God are in many cases very practical and based on the\\xa0environment that we are in. Strangers should be cared for and not\\xa0abused by being thrown into the cold without a cloak or placed into\\xa0debt. The escaped beasts of burden of a stranger should be returned to\\xa0a stranger\'s owner as well as it would be for your own. The Hebrews\\xa0were strangers in Egypt, and they should remember that when dealing\\xa0with strangers.

Moses returns to the people and recites the law and then writes it\\xa0down. The ratification of the law is done through blood, as noted by\\xa0Hebrews\\xa09:18. The people say that they will obey the law and the\\xa0people feast as part if the ratification.
