THE GREAT LEADER’S EXODUS

The great leader’s exodus. Then the LORD said to him, “This is the land which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ I have let you see it with your eyes, but you shall not go over there.”
So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the LORD.
