Deuteronomy 1
Deuteronomy 1 describes itself as Moses final address - his last words, so to speak, however they seem to go on for quite some time!!
Moses starts by reminding the Israelites what bought them to their current position - they started getting to inhabited lands, appointed tribal leaders to share Moses load, sent spies to check out the promised land, and then decided to doubt God's promise.
They are now 40 years later and a new generation is due to enter the land that their parents did not believe God would give them,.
Deuteronomy 2
Moses recalls the wandering in the wilderness and the defeat of the first king that marched out to attack Israel.
Deuteronomy 3
Moses recalls the defeat of other attacking kings, giving tribal land East of the River Jordan to the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and hafl of the half tribe Manesseh (Joseoh's son)
Moses also says that he will die on this side of the Jordan and he will not set foot in the promised land.
It seems to me that Moses last words are going to take a while here - I hope you are sitting comfortably!
