We will go through a few more areas where God employs the phrase, “house of bondage,” as a warning against being enslaved again. The next one is in Deuteronomy 8:
Notice, though, that the warning is not that those who have been delivered would forget that God exists. That is not in view here. One’s worldview can retain God as the Creator and Savior, and yet He can still be forgotten in the way one conducts one’s life. We see this in verse 11 with the two-letter word “by.” We forget God by not keeping His commandments, His judgments, and His statutes.
