The theme of Deuteronomy 33-34 is Blessings and a Final Goodbye. As Moses reaches the end of his leadership and life, he blesses each of the twelve tribes of Israel, acknowledging their unique role in God’s plan. He praises God for His faithfulness and reminds the Israelites of their special relationship with Him. In chapter 34, Moses goes to Mount Nebo, where God allows him to see the Promised Land he would not enter. Moses dies at 120 years old, still strong and full of vigor. God personally buries him, and his grave remains unknown to this day—possibly to prevent the site from becoming a shrine. The Israelites mourn him for 30 days, recognizing that no prophet had been greater than Moses, who knew God face to face. Leadership is passed on to Joshua, who is filled with wisdom to lead the people into their next chapter.
