Chapters 8 - 9

Deuteronomy 8–9 warns Israel not to forget the Lord as they enter prosperity in the Promised Land. God humbled them in the wilderness to teach that life comes from His word, not from bread alone. Moses reminds them they were not chosen because of their righteousness, but because of God’s covenant faithfulness. These chapters show that obedience and rebellion affect the whole community, calling God’s people to remember His grace, reject pride, and remain faithful to Him.
