A New Study For A New Year: Personalities

Deuteronomy 1:1-32

1 These be the words which Moses spake unto all Israel on this side Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain over against the Red sea, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab.

2 (There are eleven days' journey from Horeb by the way of mount Seir unto Kadeshbarnea.)

3 And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spake unto the children of Israel, according unto all that the Lord had given him in commandment unto them;

4 After he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at Astaroth in Edrei:

5 On this side Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying,

6 The Lord our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount:

7 Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates.

8 Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which the Lord sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them.

9 And I spake unto you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone:

10 The Lord your God hath multiplied you, and, behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.

11 (The Lord God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many more as ye are, and bless you, as he hath promised you!)

12 How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?

13 Take you wise men, and understanding, and known among your tribes, and I will make them rulers over you.

14 And ye answered me, and said, The thing which thou hast spoken is good for us to do.

15 So I took the chief of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, and captains over fifties, and captains over tens, and officers among your tribes.

16 And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear the causes between your brethren, and judge righteously between every man and his brother, and the stranger that is with him.

17 Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; but ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God's: and the cause that is too hard for you, bring it unto me, and I will hear it.

18 And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye should do.

19 And when we departed from Horeb, we went through all that great and terrible wilderness, which ye saw by the way of the mountain of the Amorites, as the Lord our God commanded us; and we came to Kadeshbarnea.

20 And I said unto you, Ye are come unto the mountain of the Amorites, which the Lord our God doth give unto us.

21 Behold, the Lord thy God hath set the land before thee: go up and possess it, as the Lord God of thy fathers hath said unto thee; fear not, neither be discouraged.

22 And ye came near unto me every one of you, and said, We will send men before us, and they shall search us out the land, and bring us word again by what way we must go up, and into what cities we shall come.

23 And the saying pleased me well: and I took twelve men of you, one of a tribe:

24 And they turned and went up into the mountain, and came unto the valley of Eshcol, and searched it out.

25 And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought it down unto us, and brought us word again, and said, It is a good land which the Lord our God doth give us.

26 Notwithstanding ye would not go up, but rebelled against the commandment of the Lord your God:

27 And ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because the Lord hated us, he hath brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.

28 Whither shall we go up? our brethren have discouraged our heart, saying, The people is greater and taller than we; the cities are great and walled up to heaven; and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakims there.

29 Then I said unto you, Dread not, neither be afraid of them.

30 The Lord your God which goeth before you, he shall fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes;

31 And in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that the Lord thy God bare thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came into this place.

32 Yet in this thing ye did not believe the Lord your God,

( The King James Version)

________________________

The Book of Numbers ends with Moses adjudicating some more rules to protect the land holdings of Zelophehad's Daughters. Moses decrees that the women marry into their own tribal group, so that the land stays in the family. This seems to be a Civil Matter rather than a ceremonial or religious one, so Moses was still involved in the day-to-day business of running things.

Today's Reading in the First Chapter of Deuteronomy. Except for the Preamble, and the Narration of the Death of Moses at the end, it is attributed to Moses himself. The tone changes from a Narrative to a Memoir. Moses speaks directly to us in the First Person. He starts out with a Recap of their 40 year Journey through the desert.

The biggest hindrance throughout the Journey was FEAR. Here's something I wrote about Fear, many years ago on this Thread.

Fear is a strange thing. On the one hand, fear will alert our bodies to danger, sending out powerful hormones that strengthen our defenses and allow us to do great feats of strength and courage to defend our lives. But, fear can also paralyze a person, so that they are unable to function at all. Men and women become heroes when they act IN SPITE of their fear, not because they have no fear in the first place. Bravado, braggadocio, and foolhardiness are NOT "Courage" because no fear is involved. It take the "Brave" to say, "I may lose my life over this, but I must do what is the right thing to do."

Then there are people who are afraid, not of losing their life, but of losing power, prestige, money, or even merely popularity. These people will sacrifice their principles, lie, cheat, or even betray one another just to hang on to what is worthless in the first place. And, of course, when their cowardice is exposed, they lose the power, prestige, money, and popularity that they endeavored to save with their perfidy!

God wants us to be fearless. The only legitimate "fear" is FEAR OF THE LORD. That is different from a phobia, which is an irrational fear of something that may or may not be able to hurt you. It's OK to be "afraid" of a hungry bear or a poisonous snake. It's a phobia when you can't even look at a picture of a bear or a snake without going into hysterics. The key word is irrational. That's why the suffix "phobia" should be used rarely and carefully. "Disapproval" of someone's behavior, for example, is NOT a ""phobia".

We'll see more of the Personality of Moses in Deuteronomy than before, because he's talking TO us, face-to-face.
