Moses says: You have become a nation to HaShem your God.
Moses says: Cursed is the man who makes any...idol…and sets it up in secret.
Moses says: Cursed is the man who strikes his fellow in secret.
Moses says: Cursed is the man who strikes his fellow in secret.

Other
nations hold up conquest or great towers or long bridges or riches
hoarded up in bedazzling jeweled cities--or even public wise men--for
all the world to see.
They exist to show their wealth to the world.
iii
But the nation of God must remain a nation to God, even in secret.
What they show to the world is never the point.
What God sees is the point.
iv
Because this is so, your life with God must permeate so far
down to the secret recesses of your heart that it is present even when
no one else can look, when only God looks.
Shabbat Shalom,
Abe
