Deuteronomy: Transitioning The People From Wandering in The Desert to Settling in The Promised Land

Published: Feb. 19, 2019, 1:57 p.m.

Moses is still leading the people as they prepare to inhabit the Promised Land.  God is ready now to give Moses a second set of laws for the Hebrews to observe designed to govern them as they inhabit and build their lives in their new home land, Canaan. 

The name Deuteronomy actually means "second law". This second set of laws gives more detail surrounding religious practices, but especially important is they announce the civil, or “day-to-day living “ laws to be observed as the Israelites begin to build their lives as God's people in the land God promised to give them.  

Join us in this lesson as we learn how Moses prepares the people for transition in living from wandering to settling, and also leadership. He reviews the past history between God and them, then progresses to giving of the additional laws and commands which must be followed as they take possession of the Promised Land and settle in it under the leadership of Joshua.
