The Gospel according to Moses: A Commentary on Deuteronomy

For renowned Old Testament scholar Dr. Daniel Block, Deuteronomy is the “Gospel according to Moses.” The bulk of Deuteronomy consists of Moses’ farewell addresses, in which Israel’s pastor calls the Israelites to remember God’s grace in salvation, covenant relationship with him, and his revelation of a way of blessing in a lost world. In some senses Deuteronomy is to the Old Testament what John’s Gospel and Paul’s letter to the Romans are to the New. Reflecting on YHWH’s past demonstrations of grace to his people, he lays the theological foundation for our entire Scriptures.

What is the Gospel of Moses? How did Moses communicate that Gospel? How did he lay the foundation for the New Testament? How are Moses’ teachings for ancient Israel relevant for New Testament Christians? Based on a lifetime of research and ministry and with careful attention to the literary features of each passage, this three-volume commentary offers readers a profound grasp of the Gospel according to Moses in Deuteronomy and its relevance for today.
