In Joshua 1, God speaks to Joshua after Moses’ death, promising to be with him and give Israel every place they set foot. Joshua must meditate on the Book of the Law and lead the people across the Jordan. The Transjordan tribes pledge to fight alongside their brothers until all receive rest, echoing the charge, “Be strong and courageous”.

In Deuteronomy 11, Moses sets Israel before a daily choice: blessing through obedience or curse through rebellion. He reminds them of God’s past acts, calls them to depend on heavenly rain, and to lay God’s word upon their hearts and their generations.

In Deuteronomy 10, God gives new tablets after Israel’s rebellion, calling His people to circumcise their hearts, live with reverent love, and show covenant mercy to the vulnerable.
