Deuteronomy 30 continues the warning by telling the Jews that even though they are scattered all over the world, Yahweh will continue to bless them. They may no longer occupy the land, and yet will continue to be a nation and someday can return to Canaan.
Obedience and disobedience are easy to determine. Simply read the word and compare it to your life. It does not take a revelation from Heaven to make these decisions. All we must do is the same. The decision to accept Christ and follow Him is easy. It is a life or death choice just as the Israelite’s decision to obey the law was.
Moses is not allowed to enter Canaan with the Israelites. This is the focus of Deuteronomy 31. Joshua has already been selected to take the leadership role. Moses reminded him to be strong and courageous.
The Law is to be read in its entirety every seven years during the year of Jubilee. This is to allow the children to learn the statutes and precepts. The word is to be taught in the home and the entire community. Sometimes we think the Church is the only place for learning about Jehovah.
God knows everything we will do. He knows of the rebellion and tragedy of the Israelites future. He also knows your life, past, present, and future. Therefore no one can guide us as He can.
