Today's reading is taken primarily from Deuteronomy 33. There are a few verses from chapters 32 and 34, as well as from Numbers. God reminds Moses that he will not enter the promised land because Moses did not uphold God's holiness and because he broke faith with God. It certainly makes you wonder what he was thinking.
Moses offers encouragement to the Israelites and gives a specific blessing to each tribe. From Mount Nebo, Moses gets his first look at the land God has promised. Then, at the age of 120, Moses dies. It is amazing that at this age Moses retains his strength and vision.
