Overview & Insights
"I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Choose life." (Deuteronomy 30:19)
At the close of the covenant, Moses sets before Israel a stark choice between life and death, blessing and curse, urged on by loving God and walking in his ways. The choice for life is renewed daily, not made once and forgotten.
