Summary
Moses reminds the new generation of Israelites about God's laws and their history. He encourages them not to forget and emphasizes the importance of trusting in God. Just as God assured the Israelites of victory, we are called to have faith, leave our past behind, and move forward with confidence in Jesus.

Steve Webb 0:02It's the Lifespring! One Year Bible coming to you from Riverside, California and podcasting since two thousand….yeah, California… 2004. I'm your OG Godcaster Steve Webb, it's the law Monday. and we'll begin our last book in that section with Deuteronomy one through three. The website is Lifespringmedia.com. and I'll have contact information at the end. Before we read, let's pray. Our Heavenly Father, we love you. and we thank you for bringing us together here to read your word. I pray that You would bless this time, teach us Lord, we pray in Jesus name. Amen. All right, are you ready? Let's begin.
Steve Webb 0:42Well, here in the beginning of Deuteronomy, the children of Israel are on the threshold of entering into the Promised Land, God has led them in the wilderness for 40 years, not because it took that long to walk from Egypt to this place. But because of their rebellion. Near the beginning of their journey, they turned from God to worship a golden calf. and because of that, God told them that that generation would never enter the promised land. But now there's a new generation, all of the old generation was dead, and God was about to fulfill his promise to give this land to this generation. But because of Moses disobedience at merubah, God told him that he would not enter the Promised Land either. So knowing that he would not be going with them, Moses spoke to all of Israel when they were about to cross over into Canaan, the promised land. Now, the word Deuteronomy means second law. and this book is a sermon or a series of messages from God, through Moses to Israel, we need to remember that none of this generation was old enough to remember when God gave the tablets of the law to Moses on Mount Sinai. So Deuteronomy is a second giving of the law, because God wanted this new generation to follow his commands. He didn't want them to fail as their parents had. and God knew that Moses would not be there to lead them. So he directed Moses to remind them of how God had delivered them from their captivity in Egypt, and what happened in the 40 years since that miraculous event, and he wanted to remind them or perhaps for some of them, to teach them for the first time of God's laws. You know, we humans have short memories, don't we? We need to be reminded again and again. When we look back at history, that fact seems evident. I won't go into detail here. But what we're living through right now is proof of that. Just about 75 years ago, World War Two was fought and fascism was beat back by the forces of freedom. and now Fascism is making a comeback using another name,
