The story
What happens, plainly.
In the fortieth year, on the far side of the Jordan, Moshe begins to speak to all Israel. He tells them again about the road from Horeb: how he could not carry them alone and set judges over them; how the scouts brought back fruit and said the land was good, and the people sulked in their tents and would not go up; how that generation was sentenced to die in the wilderness, all but Kalev and Yehoshua, and how they then went up on their own and were chased down like bees. He recounts the long circling of Seir, the command to pass Edom, Moav and Ammon in peace and pay for food and water, and the victories over Sichon and Og. The land east of the Jordan goes to Reuven, Gad and half of Menashe, and Moshe tells Yehoshua not to be afraid, because Hashem fights for them.
