INTRODUCTION TO
DEUTERONOMY

Outline:

1. Moses’ first sermon: Review of Israel’s history. (1:1-4:43)
2. Moses’ second sermon:
      a. Review of the Law. (4:44-11:32)

5. Moses’ final words and death. (32:44-34:12)

Author: Moses. (However, Joshua probably recorded Moses’ death in Ch. 34)

Date Written: Between 1410 and 1395 B.C.

Time Span: One to two months.

Title: It is derived from the Greek Word Deuteronomion, which means “second law giving.”

Background: The Pentateuch concludes with this fifth and final book of Moses. Deuteronomy begins at the end of Israel’s forty-year period in the wilderness when the new generation is preparing to enter the promised land (Canaan).

Where written: On the plains near the Jordan River in Moab (due east of Jericho).

To Whom: To the New generation of Israelites.

Content: A number of years have passed since the Law was given at Mount Sinai to the parents of these Israelites. But that generation has since died in the wilderness (except Caleb and Joshua), and this new generation needs to learn how to develop a proper relationship with God. Thus, three farewell sermons to Israel are given by the 120-year-old Moses just prior to his death, and the appointment of Joshua as Moses’ successor takes place. These addresses challenge the people to live their future in faith and obedience as they review their past. Moral and legal regulations are expanded on, and the Ten Commandments are repeated.

Key Words: “Remember”; “Covenant”; “Obedience.”
Moses gives constant encouragement to the Israelites to “remember” their original ‘covenant” with the God of the patriarchs, who has freed them from Egyptian bondage and sustained them through the wilderness. The only proper response from such an undeserving people is “obedience” to God without reservation.

Themes: • There is but one true God. • Obedience brings blessings; disobedience brings punishment. • Genuine love for God is evidenced by holy living and love for others. • God’s power and faithfulness can be depended on during our times of need. • We must teach our children to fear the Lord and keep His commandments (Ch. 6).
