Really thoughtful take on the intergenerational dimension of obedience. The framing around verse 26:5 shifts the whole motivational calculus away form personal reward toward legacy, which is a way healthier way to think about faithfulness. I've noticed in my own spiritual practice that when decisions are only about immediate payoff, they tend to be short-sighted, but legacy-mindset naturally produces more sustainable choices
