‏ Deuteronomy 34:1

Summary for Deut 34:1-12: 34:1-12  a Moses fell short of entry into the land of promise (see study note on 32:51), but God did permit him to share a moment of glory in the land at Jesus’ transfiguration (Luke 9:28-36  b). 34:1  c Mount Nebo is a high elevation in the Abarim hills east of the Jordan River. Virtually the whole land west of the Jordan can be seen from this vantage point (32:49  d).

• Nebo was part of Pisgah Peak (see study note on 3:17).

• Gilead as far as Dan was the northernmost part of the land. The Sea of Galilee and Mount Hermon lie straight north from Nebo. Gilead is just east of the sea, and Dan (Laish; Judg 18:29  e) was south and west of Hermon.
