Book of Deuteronomy

The Book of Deuteronomy was written by Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, just prior to the Israelite's entrance into Canaan at about 1645 B.C.  The book records the repetition of the 10 commandments and contains the parting counsels of Moses to Israel in view of their entrance into Canaan.  It reveals a summary of the wilderness experience and the addition of many new laws in conjunction to those that had been given some 40 years earlier.  There are many parting warnings regarding the realistic possibility of sin, prophecies concerning the future of Israel, and the Palestinian covenant with God.
