Take a look at the following words: Deceive, beguile, snare, cheat, devour, entice, tempt, lull, rage, blind, lie, flatter, destroy
What do these words have in common? They all describe Satan’s tactics in his efforts to draw us away from the Lord.
What can we do to be protected from Satan’s influence? In the book of Deuteronomy, Moses taught the Israelites how to create an environment that would help them resist Satan’s temptations. Our goal today is to study these teachings so that we remember the Lord and the covenants we have made with him while creating an environment that will help us to stay connected to him as we do so. Excerpts from Deuteronomy are wonderful in helping us to accomplish this.
What are some things that remind you of the Lord and the covenants you have made with him? Maybe scriptures, pictures, books, or music...
Part of the lesson from Moses in Deuteronomy is about physical objects that the ancient Israelites used to remind themselves of the Lord and their covenants with him.
The Book Of Deuteronomy
The book of Deuteronomy is not the story of Israel's unique experiences in the wilderness but Moses' interpretation of the meaning of all those happenings. This book explains how Israel, out of its fundamental experience with God, developed its "national testimony" about him and his relationship with them. Here their unique call and relationship with God is emphasized, as well as the price they had had to pay to qualify to enter the promised land. Here we learn how God had helped and would continue to help them succeed, the circumstances under which they would qualify for his conditional blessings, and how they might hope to establish a just and holy nation. This kind of discussion made this book into an important guide book for individual Israelites as well as their king.
Deuteronomy is the Greek name of the fifth book of the Bible. It means "Second Law," or "A Copy of the Law." The Hebrew name of the Book, elleh haddebarim ("These Are the Words"), is taken from the first words of Deuteronomy: "These are the words which Moses spake unto all Israel on this side Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain. . . . according unto all that the Lord had given him in commandment unto them" (1:1, 3, 5; unless otherwise specified, all references are to the book of Deuteronomy). It is also familiarly known to the Jews as mishneh hattora, "copy of the law" (17:18). (Studies in Scripture Vol 3 Robert L Millet)
In This book three sermons are given by Moses prior
to his departure from Israel in which he summarized the law of Moses. At this time Israel was camped in Moab, across the Jordan from the promised
land and Joshua would soon lead them in their battle against the Canaanites
to possess the promised land.
- First Sermon (chapter 1:6 - chapter 4:40): Recounted the most important events of their years of wandering and gave a reminder that they should not forget the laws given at Sinai.
- Second Sermon (chapters 5-26): Was a review of the law, including the Ten Commandments.
- Third Sermon (chapters 27-30): Is a call for Israel to renew their covenant along with a warning of the consequences for failure to do so.
- Chapters 31-34: May not have been written by Moses but recounts the selection and ordination of Joshua as Moses' successor and the death or translation of Moses as we know from other sources that Moses did not actually die, but was translated.
The writer who finished the book of Deuteronomy knew only that Moses was gone and so assumed that he had died, that the Lord had buried him, and that no one knew where his grave was. However, we know that Moses was translated. (For an explanation of the state of translated beings, see 3 Nephi 28:7–9, 37–40.) The Bible Dictionary gives the following explanation of Moses’ translation:
“As was the case with many of the ancient prophets, Moses’ ministry extended beyond the limits of his own mortal lifetime. In company with Elijah, he came to the Mount of Transfiguration and bestowed keys of the priesthood upon Peter, James, and John (Matthew 17:3–4; Mark 9:4–9; Luke 9:30; D&C 63:21; History of the Church, 3:387). From this event, which occurred before the resurrection of Jesus, we understand that Moses was a translated being and had not died as reported in Deuteronomy 34 (Alma 45:19). It was necessary that he be translated, in order to have a body of flesh and bones at the time of the transfiguration, since the resurrection had not yet taken place. Had he been a spirit only, he could not have performed the work on the mount of giving the keys to the mortal Peter, James, and John (cf. D&C 129)” (Bible Dictionary, “Moses,” 735).
The book of Deuteronomy contains Moses' last words to the Israelites.
The setting of this reminds me somewhat of King Benjamin when he called all to come to the temple to listen to his last sermon and named his successor. In much a like manor Moses did the same, giving his last all to those that he had given to lead, guide and protect.
"Moses speaks like a dying father to his children.
The words are earnest, inspired, impressive. He looks back over the whole
of the forty years of their wandering in the desert, reminds the people
of all the blessings they have received, of the ingratitude with which
they have so often repaid them, and of the judgments of God, and the love
that continually broke forth behind them; he explains the laws again and
again, and adds what is necessary to complete them, and is never weary
of urging obedience to them in the warmest and most emphatic words, because
the very life of the nation was bound up with this; he surveys all the
storms and conflicts which they have passed through, and, beholding the
future in the past, takes a survey also of the future history of the nation,
and sees, with mingled sorrow and joy, how the three great features of
the past--viz. apostasy, punishment, and pardon--continue to repeat themselves
in the future also." (Keil and Delitzsch, Commentary quoted
in Old Testament Student Manual, p216)
It is significant that the essence of Moses' message was not only applicable
to the ancient Hebrew tribes, but to the people of God in all ages. If you were given the chance to give one last message to your family, your friends, your loved ones, what would it be?
1. Moses gives instructions to the Israelites to help them remember their covenants Deuteronomy 6:1–9 and 11:18–21
After testing, chastening, and teaching the Israelites in the wilderness for 40 years, the Lord said they were ready to enter the promised land. But first he had some important instructions for them. Moses delivered these instructions in three sermons. In these sermons Moses reviewed Israel’s 40-year sojourn in the wilderness, recognizing God’s hand in their deliverance. Moses also discussed Israel’s responsibilities as God’s chosen people. He emphasized that they must obey God’s commandments, particularly the commands to remember Him and refrain from idol worship. Moses warned that although the children of Israel were ready to enter the promised land, if they returned to wickedness they would lose their inheritance and be scattered.
Beginning with Deut 6: 1-4 we read:
1 Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the Lord your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it:
2 That thou mightest fear the Lord thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged.
3 ¶ Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the Lord God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey.
4 Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord:
Here Moses opened his overview of divine laws with a proclamation: "Hear, O Israel: JEHOVAH is our God; JEHOVAH is one" (Deut. 6:4, translation mine). The first word, hear, is shema in Hebrew, so the whole verse is called the Shema by Jews; they recite it on special occasions, and the deeply religious desire to repeat the verse at the moment of death. They do not, of course, pronounce the name Jehovah but use a substitute, Adonai, which means "my Lord." In verse 3 we see that The law of God is for man's good: "Observe to do it; that it may be well with thee" (Deut. 6:3).
The Shema passage in Deuteronomy 6 is of interest to Christians also because Jesus said that verse 5 contained the greatest commandment in the law (see Matthew 22:36–37). It is the sum and substance of all other commandments, for if people loved God with all their heart, might, mind, and strength, every aspect of their lives would be devoted to righteousness and holiness. And if these words were constantly in their hearts (see v. 6) and they sought to teach them to their children in every way possible, in every aspect of their lives, through precept and example, at night and in the day, at home or elsewhere, all of society would be dramatically altered. In that respect, this belief of the Jews is correct. The Shema, if it truly is an affirmation of faith and not just words, should be the supreme thought in one’s heart, and it is even worth dying, if living means a denial of that affirmation. (Old Testament Student Manual)
Deuteronomy Deuteronomy 6:5–7 reads:
5 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
What did the Lord command the Israelites to do in these verses? And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
How can we get the words of the scriptures into our hearts? Personal and family prayer, Family home evening, Daily scripture study, Regular attendance at church and all our classes, Seminary and institute for the youth, Daily devotionals, Daily discussions, Fully observe the Sabbath...When we immerse
ourselves in the things of God, we gain true perspective and life takes
on meaning.
How can parents effectively teach the gospel to their children of any age and help them learn to love the scriptures? Walk by the way when we sit in our houses, lie down at night, and upon waking each day in short be the example in word and deed continually.
What did Moses counsel the Israelites to do in Deuteronomy 6:8–9 and Deuteronomy 11:18–20?
8 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.
9 And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.
18 ¶ Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.
19 And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
20 And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates:
The Lord emphasized the importance of this injunction by using figurative language commanding the people to bind these words on their foreheads and hands and to put them on the doorposts of their homes. These verses led to the Jewish customs known as the tefillin (or phylacteries) and the mezuzah.
Taking the command literally, the Jews inscribed certain scriptural passages, including Deuteronomy 6:4–9, on tiny pieces of parchment, folded them up, and put them into tiny leather boxes about 1½ inches square. These boxes were then tied to the head to be over the forehead, or on the left biceps, suggesting that the wearer would “fulfill the law with the head and heart” (Fallows, Bible Encyclopedia, s.v. “phylactery,” 3:1344). Some apostate Israelites later viewed these frontlets as amulets to ward off evil spirits. Thus, the Greeks called them phylacteries, which means “safeguards.”
The mezuzah (Hebrew for “doorpost”) was similar to the tefillin in that it was a parchment with a scriptural passage on it inserted into a tiny, cylindrical box. The mezuzah was attached to the door frame, and it became customary for Jews to touch or kiss the mezuzah each time they left or entered the home.
The symbolic words of the commandment teach a beautiful lesson. The doorpost symbolizes the portals through which man moves to interact with his fellow man. As one sets forth from or returns to home, one’s conscious desire should be to do the will of God.
Why do you think Moses told the people to place passages of scripture between their eyes, on their hands, on the posts of their houses, and on their gates? To be a constant reminder of the Lord thus keeping us connected and grounded.
How would such constant reminders affect our actions? We are less likely to make wrong choices and veer off from the gospel when we are in constant contact and consumed with Christ.
What can we do in our homes to remind us of the Lord, his words, and our covenants with him? Do the pictures on our walls, the books we read, and the movies and television shows we watch remind us of the Lord, or do they suggest a longing for the world?
President Ezra Taft Benson said that people who are “captained by Christ will be consumed in Christ. … Enter their homes, and the pictures on their walls, the books on their shelves, the music in the air, their words and acts reveal them as Christians” (Conference Report, Oct. 1985, 6; or Ensign, Nov. 1985, 6–7)
2. Moses counsels the Israelites to obey God’s commandments and remember Him Deuteronomy 6:10–12 and 8:1–20
What are Moses’ main messages in Deuteronomy 6:10–12 and 8:1–20?
10 And it shall be, when the Lord thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou buildedst not,
11 And houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not, and wells digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou plantedst not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full;
12 Then beware lest thou forget the Lord, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
1 All the commandments which I command thee this day shall ye observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which the Lord sware unto your fathers.
2 And thou shalt remember all the way which the Lord thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no.
3 And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live.
4 Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.
5 Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the Lord thy God chasteneth thee.
6 Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.
7 For the Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills;
8 A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of oil olive, and honey;
9 A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack any thing in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou mayest dig brass.
10 When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the Lord thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.
11 Beware that thou forget not the Lord thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day:
12 Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein;
13 And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied;
14 Then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the Lord thy God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage;
15 Who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness, wherein were fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint;
16 Who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end;
17 And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth.
18 But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
19 And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the Lord thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish.
20 As the nations which the Lord destroyeth before your face, so shall ye perish; because ye would not be obedient unto the voice of the Lord your God.
What does it mean to forget the Lord? Deuteronomy 8:11
11 Beware that thou forget not the Lord thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day:
What are the consequences of forgetting him? Deuteronomy 8:19
19 And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the Lord thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish.
How can we be sure that we do not forget God?
What conditions or challenges did Moses name that might cause people to forget God? Deuteronomy 6:10–12; 8:10–20
11 And houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not, and wells digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou plantedst not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full;
President Brigham Young said: “The worst fear that I have about [members of this Church] is that they will get rich in this country, forget God and his people, wax fat, and kick themselves out of the Church and go to hell. This people will stand mobbing, robbing, poverty, and all manner of persecution, and be true. But my greater fear for them is that they cannot stand wealth; and yet they have to be tried with riches, for they will become the richest people on this earth” (Preston Nibley, Brigham Young: The Man and His Work [1936], 128)
Why do some people forget the Lord after he blesses them abundantly? Deuteronomy 8:17. The sad truth that men forget God in times of peace and prosperity was eloquently taught by Moses, Mormon also taught this truth in Helaman 12:1–7.
17 And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth.
Who is the source of any prosperity that we may have? Deuteronomy 8:18.
18 But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day
How can we use our prosperity to further the Lord’s work? Deuteronomy 8:18; Jacob 2:18–19
18 But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
18 But before ye seek for riches, seek ye for the kingdom of God.
19 And after ye have obtained a hope in Christ ye shall obtain riches, if ye seek them; and ye will seek them for the intent to do good—to clothe the naked, and to feed the hungry, and to liberate the captive, and administer relief to the sick and the afflicted.
President Spencer W. Kimball: "The Lord
has blessed us as a people with a prosperity unequaled in times past. The
resources that have been placed in our power are good, and necessary to
our work here on the earth. But I am afraid that many of us have been surfeited
with flocks and herds and acres and barns and wealth and have begun to
worship them as false gods, and they have power over us. Do we have more
of these good things than our faith can stand? Many people spend most of
their time working in the service of a self-image that includes sufficient
money, stocks, bonds, investment portfolios, property, credit cards, furnishings,
automobiles, and the like to guarantee carnal security throughout, it is
hoped, a long and happy life. Forgotten is the fact that our assignment
is to use these many resources in our families and quorums to build up
the kingdom of God—to further the missionary effort and the genealogical
and temple work; to raise our children up as fruitful servants unto the
Lord; to bless others in every way, that they may also be fruitful."
(Teachings of Spencer W. Kimball, p357)
3. Moses counsels the Israelites to be mindful of the Rock of their salvation (Jesus Christ) Deuteronomy 32:1–4, 15–18, 30–40, 45–47
Who is the Rock spoken of in Deuteronomy 32:3–4? Jesus Christ; see also verses 15, 18, and 30–31
“Christ is the Stone of Israel. (Gen. 49:24.) ‘I am the good shepherd, and the stone of Israel. He that buildeth upon this rock shall never fall.’ (D. & C. 50:44.) Christ is thus the stone or foundation upon which all men must build. Of him the psalmist prophesied: ‘The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.’ (Ps. 118:22; Matt. 21:42; Mark 12:10–11; Luke 20:17–18.) Peter used this truth to teach that the saints ‘as lively stones’ should build ‘a spiritual house,’ with Christ, the Stone of Israel, as the foundation. (1 Pet. 2:1–9.)” (McConkie, Mormon Doctrine, p. 768.)
Elder Bruce R. McConkie: "Christ is the Rock (Deut.
32:3-4, 18, 30-31; 1 Cor. 10:1-4), or the Rock of Heaven. (Moses 7:53.)
Such name-titles carry a connotation of strength and stability (1 Sam.
2:2), as for instance when David exulted: 'The Lord is my rock, and my
fortress, and my deliverer; The God of my rock, in him will I trust: he
is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge,
my saviour.' (2 Sam. 22:1-4; 23:3; Psa. 18:1-3, 31.)" (Mormon
Doctrine, p657)
Why do you think Jesus Christ is sometimes called the Rock? Helaman 5:12
12 And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall.
Moses declared that “their rock” (the false gods of the wicked) “is not as our Rock” Deuteronomy 32:31. How is “their rock” different from “our Rock”? Deuteronomy 32:37–40
37 And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted,
38 Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings? let them rise up and help you, and be your protection.
39 See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
40 For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever.
What does it mean to build upon the Rock? Deuteronomy 32:46–47; Matthew 7:24–27; D&C 50:44
46 And he said unto them, Set your hearts unto all the words which I testify among you this day, which ye shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law.
47 For it is not a vain thing for you; because it is your life: and through this thing ye shall prolong your days in the land, whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.
24 ¶ Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
44 Wherefore, I am in your midst, and I am the good shepherd, and the stone of Israel. He that buildeth upon this rock shall never fall.
How can we do this? Deuteronomy 18:18–19 (Tells of the prophesying of the coming of Christ, and the need to hearken to his words.)
18 But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
19 And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the Lord thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish.
Withstanding Negative Influences.
What danger did Moses warn against in Deuteronomy 13:6–8
6 ¶ If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;
7 Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth;
8 Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him:
How can we recognize when someone is trying to pull us away from the Lord? How should we respond to such a person?
The warning of the Lord against false prophets and their teachings and the requirement that false prophets should be put to death are consistent with the Savior's admonition that a false teacher should be feared more than a murderer. (See Matt. 10:28.)
Viewed from the perspective of eternity, it is evident why a person should fear a false teacher (who is able to influence him to commit sin and lead him away from salvation) more than a murderer (who is only able to take physical life, which will be restored in the resurrection).
Joseph Fielding Smith has provided the following commentary on these verses:
It is no worse to have our Eternal Father command us to go to war and to destroy the lives of the wicked in war, than it is for him to bring fire from heaven to accomplish the same purpose, as he did on the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah; or to destroy cities as he did by earthquake and fire as recorded in the Book of Mormon; or to bring upon the world a flood to cleanse the earth of its wickedness. President John Taylor has given us reasons for the Lord's accomplishment of his purposes in the following words: [Quoted Deut. 13:6-10.]
"Here, then, it is stated, that if brother, son, wife or any one, wish to lead thee from God, thou shalt destroy them; and why? Because in forsaking God, they lose sight of their eternal existence, corrupt themselves, and entail misery on their posterity. Hence it was better to destroy a few individuals, than to entail misery on many. And hence the inhabitants of the old world and of the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed, because it was better for them to die, and thus be deprived of their agency, which they abused, then entail so much misery on their posterity, and bring ruin upon millions of unborn persons." (John Taylor, The Government of God, p. 53.) (AGQ 3:54-55.) (Companion to Your Study of the Old Testament Daniel H Ludlow)
Conclusion
We know that Satan is real and his intent and purposes are not for our good. The verses in D&C 76:28–29 teach us that this is true and that protecting ourselves and our loved ones should be our main priority.
28 And while we were yet in the Spirit, the Lord commanded us that we should write the vision; for we beheld Satan, that old serpent, even the devil, who rebelled against God, and sought to take the kingdom of our God and his Christ—
29 Wherefore, he maketh war with the saints of God, and encompasseth them round about.
The messages of the last sermons from Moses to Israel are clearly not only for them, but for us, Israel today. The importance of remembering God and keeping the covenants we make with him is of the utmost priority. The things we place around us—such as pictures, books, and music—can be powerful reminders of the Lord and the covenants we have made with him. Our purpose in surrounding ourselves with these things is the same as the ancient Israelites’ purpose in wearing frontlets: to help us build upon the Rock—to help us remember and follow the Lord. When we do that there is safety and there is peace.
