God makes a nationwide morality play in Deuteronomy 27 and 28. ½ the people play the good guys, and ½ the nation plays the bad guys. The whole country literally has a part. They stand on the dividing lines of good vs. evil.
Everybody speaks so that they understood the choice before them. Everybody understands the consequences.
Don't we all similarly understand that we get to choose, but choose under the watchful eye of the Lord.
