‏ Deuteronomy 3:20

Commitment of the Two and a Half Tribes

Moses does not forget that wilderness side of the Jordan is not the promised land. The land where the blessing of God is enjoyed is still before them. He recalls the two and a half tribes’ commitment to help conquer the land first.

We can learn from this that we should not only look for our own interests, but also for those of others (Phil 2:4). If we ourselves have rest, we will seek it for our brothers. We are members of each other and in the blessing of our fellow believer is also our blessing. We will work toward that.
