August 28, 2011 – Deuteronomy 1

Here we have a short review of what has happened over the 40 years. This is the first time I have seen the separation of Joshua and Caleb and the reason they are allowed in. Moses gives the reason the Israelites are not getting in, doubting God about going into the land, but Caleb could go. Then Moses says he will not go into the land for his own faults (striking the rock twice) but Joshua would go in his place to lead. Eleazar isn’t mentioned, but it appears the same as Moses situation. Aaron is not going in because of the striking the rock (and he is already dead), but Eleazar will go in his place. Still, there are roles for Eleazar and Joshua, I wonder if we hear what becomes of Caleb.
