Today's reading from Deuteronomy 30-31
Deuteronomy 30
God reminded the Israelites when they experience all the curse and blessings (Deut 28), they are dispersed among the nations, and they decide to return to the Lord and obey Him, then the Lord will restore their fortunes, have compassion on them and gather them from all nations. We see this happening in 516 B.C. when the temple was rebuilt in Jerusalem, and shortly afterward with the return of Ezra and Nehemiah.
We also see the Israelites returned to Palestine in 1948 and recaptured Jerusalem in 1967. Some of the prophecies have yet to be fulfilled when Jesus returns ant he Millenial Kingdom of a thousand years arrive.
In verse 11.20, to summarize, God is offering the people to choose between death and life. In verse 15. See, I set before you today life and prosperity, death and destruction. In the same way, Jesus talks about the narrow way and the broad way. Two paths, one leads to eternal life and the other to eternal destruction -Matt 7.23-24. Can we say like Joshua, As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
Deuteronomy 31
Joshua was to sucseed Moses (v. 1-8); The Law was read (v. 9-13) and the Rebellion of Israel was predicted (v. 14-29).
