Contextual Overview

1 Then Moses spoke these words to all Israel. 2 He said to them, "I am 120 years old today. I am no longer able to come and go. And the Lord has told me, ‘You will not cross this Jordan.' 3 The Lord your God Himself will cross before you. He will destroy these nations in front of you. And you will take their place. Joshua will cross before you also, as the Lord has said. 4 The Lord will do the same to them that He did to Sihon and Og, the kings of the Amorites, and to their land when He destroyed them. 5 The Lord will give them to you. Then you will do to them as I have told you. 6 Be strong and have strength of heart. Do not be afraid or shake with fear because of them. For the Lord your God is the One Who goes with you. He will be faithful to you. He will not leave you alone." 7 Then Moses called Joshua and said to him in front of all Israel, "Be strong and have strength of heart. For you will go with this people into the land the Lord has promised to their fathers to give them. And you will bring them in to take it. 8 The Lord is the One Who goes before you. He will be with you. He will be faithful to you and will not leave you alone. Do not be afraid or troubled."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Moses went and spake these words unto all Israel. The following words, even to the whole body of the people summoned together on this occasion. It seems that after Moses had made the covenant with them he was directed to, he dismissed the people to their tents, and went to his own, and now returned, having ordered them to meet him again, very probably at the tabernacle; with which agrees the Targum of Jonathan, he

"went to the tabernacle of the house of doctrine;''

though, according to Aben Ezra, he went to the each tribes separately, as they lay encamped; his words are these,

"he went to every tribe and tribe, to acquaint them that he was about to die, and that they might not be afraid, and to strengthen their hearts;''

he adds,

"in my opinion he then blessed them, though their blessings are afterwards written;''

which is not improbable.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

obedience, 1-6.

Delivers the law which he hod written to the priests, with a

solemn charge that they should read it every seventh year,

publicly to all the people, 9-13.

He appears to them, informs Moses of his approaching death, and

delivers to him a prophetical and historical song, or poem,
