Moving towards the end, Moses proclaims Israel's success in entering the promise land and foretelling that Joshua will be the man to lead them. This work of deliverance is one given by God as a provision of the covenant of grace which He has made with Israel. Israel is encouraged to "be strong and of good courage." Whereas the first generation refused to enter the rest of God, this generation will be taken across by Joshua. Despite this deliverance and the continued reading of the law of God, Israel will by and large rebel against the Lord. What conclusion can we draw? That the only way to enter into the rest of God is to do so by faith in the new Joshua, Jesus Christ who only can deliver us into a state of eternal rest with the Lord.
