YeHoVaH informed Moses and Joshua, who would become Israel’s new leader, that the newly formed nation of Israel would prostitute themselves to the foreign gods of the land they were entering and that they would forsake Him, break the Covenant they made with Him, and as a result, experience destruction at His hand. Moses was instructed by YeHoVaH, in the presence of Joshua, to write a prophetic song that would speak to Israel in the days of their rebellion and to teach that song to all the people. YeHoVaH’s song of rebellion was His case against Israel and why He had turned His face away from His people.
Other Teachings: Expect to Receive, The Cost of Rebellion, Blessings or Curses?
What is the purpose of the prophetic song Moses wrote in Deuteronomy? YeHoVaH instructed Moses to write a prophetic song as a testimony against Israel, foretelling their future rebellion, idolatry, and violation of the Covenant. The song served as a lasting witness to remind the nation why YeHoVaH would turn His face from them—because of their unfaithfulness. It was to be taught to all the people, making clear the consequences of forsaking Him and turning to foreign gods.
