Deuteronomy 1-3, Psalm 40

Episode Summary

Deuteronomy loosely translated means “second law,” because it’s in this book that Moses reviews the Law and the promises of God for a new generation before he, himself, passes away. The former generation has all died because of their iniquity, just as the Lord had sworn, which means that the next generation needs a recap of what has happened so far. In his final words to the nation of Israel, you’ll hear Moses give Israel’s history of wandering in the same way a pastor might speak to his congregation, pleading with them to trust in the Lord and reminding them of God’s faithfulness.
