Summary This official doctrinal thesis argues that the command to read 'this law' every seventh year at the Feast of Tabernacles (Deuteronomy 31:10-13) calls for public recitation of the Book of the Covenant, not the whole Torah. It identifies that book with Exodus 20-23, Leviticus 25-26, Deuteronomy 4-31 and Joshua 23-24, a covenant vow renewal for the remnant. A closing note confesses that FHMI missed the last seventh-year reading and will read it at this year's Sukkot in repentance.
