From Deuteronomy

Deuteronomy 1:1

These be the words which Moses spake unto all Israel on this side Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain over against the Red sea, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab.

These are the heartfelt words Moses shared with all of Israel, while they were in the wilderness near Jordan, overlooking the Red Sea, surrounded by Paran, Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Dizahab.

Deuteronomy 6:5

And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.

Pour every ounce of your heart, soul, and strength into loving God.

Deuteronomy 11:4

And what he did unto the army of Egypt, unto their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how the LORD hath destroyed them unto this day;

Remember how He crushed the Egyptian forces, their horses, and chariots. How He unleashed the Red Sea's waters upon them as they chased you, and how God has kept them defeated to this day.

Deuteronomy 24:7

If a man be found stealing any of his brethren of the children of Israel, and maketh merchandise of him, or selleth him; then that thief shall die; and thou shalt put evil away from among you.

If someone is caught kidnapping a fellow Israelite and treating or selling them as a slave, that person must be put to death. This act will cleanse your community of evil.
