The Book ofDeuteronomy
Old Testament · Book 5 of 66 · 34 chapters · 959 verses
Deuteronomy is Moses' farewell sermon on the edge of the Promised Land — a passionate retelling of the law for a new generation. Its heartbeat is love: love God with all your heart, soul, and strength. Jesus quoted Deuteronomy more than almost any other book.
