The best way to bless the world and secure blessings for yourself is to do what God says. However, Israel’s continued disobedience to the law would ultimately lead to their exile from the land which God gave them and from God’s presence. Just like in the Garden, sin leads us to be distant from God. Even then, God would bring them back from exile and allow them to enjoy the blessings of the covenant despite their incomplete obedience. Just like Israel, God sticks with us even when we ignore him.
