At Mount Sinai, otherwise called Horeb, Moses had entered into a covenant, or agreement, with God —thus early in Israel's desert experience—that they would hear and obey God's commandments (Ex. 19:5, 8) as recorded in the following chapter. Some forty years later, when Israel had reached the land of Moab on the verge of entering the Promised Land of Canaan, the covenant was renewed (Deut. 29: 1, 9, 10; 31:12, 13; 32:45, 46).
