DEUTERONOMY
DEUTERONOMY
Moses recounts the history of the forty years of wandering (until practically all of the old and unfaithful Jews had died) and includes the winning of the lands east of the Jordan river and the killing of all the previous inhabitants.
The conquered lands were given to the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and the half-tribe of Manessah with the stipulation that the men must assist in the conquering of the lands west of the river. Because of the earlier sins of the people, Moses will not be allowed to set foot on this promised land.
Moses reviews the Ten Commandments and all the other laws given to the Israelites by The LORD and cautioned them to always obey these laws. He also predicted that the Israelites would turn away, be conquered, and, later, return to the worship of The LORD. Moses tells how the LORD had them to build an ark to hold the two replacement Ten Commandments stones that Moses had smashed earlier.
Moses wrote down all the laws and distributed them. He also presented them with a song and a blessing. Then, Moses went up on the mountain to die: he was 120 years old, still strong and with good vision. According to the instructions given by The LORD, Joshua was now the new leader of Israel.
So ends our review of the first five books of the Holy Bible as were written by Moses the greatest prophet.
