The final words of the covenant urged God’s people to remember all “the Lord did before their eyes” (29:2) and to not forget God through “stubbornness of heart” (29:19). God wanted not just morality but radically changed hearts (30:6-7). There was a clear choice set before the Israelites between “life and good, death and evil” (30:15) and the obvious, right response is to “choose life” so that we may live (30:19).

Jesus is still the right choice. For “whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life” (1 John 5:12). It only makes sense to “hold fast to him, for he is your life” (Deuteronomy 30:20).
