Moses recounts the path they've been on from the time they "marched out boldly," the LORD showing that the gods of Egypt were false, and the preparation to now enter the Promise Land.
God spoke to Moses and told him to tell the Israelites: When you cross the Jordan (not if... when) and go into Canaan (enter the battle) force out all the people who live there (be strong) destroy all their idols, wreck all their places of worship (be thorough, do all I say) take over, and settle there; I have given this land to you.
When you cross → go into → force out → destroy → wreck → take over → settle there. I have given you the land. BUT if you don't force them out? They will bring you trouble. They will bring you sharp hooks in your eyes and thorns in your side. They will bring trouble to the land and I will punish you as I had planned to punish them.
We choose to follow God's step-by-step plans which I wrote about yesterday.
Next Entry: Deuteronomy 1:1 – 3:29
