On the Plains of Moab Moses looks to the future, forecasting the challenges that the coming generations of Israel will face and applying God's covenant word to new situations.
In this clear, cogent exposition, Raymond Brown guides us to hear and appreciate the timeless relevance of The Message of Deuteronomy. He illuminates the meaning Deuteronomy still carries for Christians today, showing us how God's law comes alive again – as a guide to good living, a call to wholehearted repentance, and a promise of healing restoration under God's merciful hand.
