Deuteronomy 1-4

(1v5) 'Moses undertook to explain this law...'
Moses has communicated God's words to the people, having received direct revelation from the Lord. Having proclaimed God's words, he now seeks to explain them.

(4v25) 'When you...have grown old...if you act corruptly...'
Sometimes, the word of God is a light that draws people away from the world's dangers. Sometimes, though, the word of God will be part of people's judgment, as they shy away from its light so their deeds can remain in darkness.
