Deuteronomy: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 07:58, 5 July 2022

"These are the words which Moses spoke to all Israel," Deuteronomy 1:1.

Deuteronomy's spiritual emphasis and its call to total commitment to the Lord in worship and obedience inspired references to its message throughout the rest of Scripture. Understanding the Ten Commandments as the explanation of the Lord on how he works through creation can be helpful in understanding Deuteronomy. It has been said by many that the division of the Hebrew Bible called the Former Prophets (Joshua, Judges, Samuel, Kings) is thoroughly imbued with the style, themes and motifs of Deuteronomy.

Deuteronomy records this "second law"—namely Moses's series of sermons in which he restated God's commands originally given to the Israelites some forty years earlier in Exodus and Leviticus.
