The book of Deuteronomy is one of the most significant books in the Bible. Its content helped shape the theology of both the Old and New Testaments. In Book Study: Deuteronomy distinguished Old Testament scholar Dr. Daniel Block provides an in-depth look at look at this important book. Dr. Block walks through the text of what he calls “the Gospel according to Moses.” You’ll gain a better understanding of Deuteronomy and a fresh appreciation of how the book reveals the brilliance of God’s grace.
Daniel I. Block (DPhil, University of Liverpool) is Gunther H. Knoedler Professor of Old Testament at Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois. He is the author of several books and numerous essays and has written commentaries on Deuteronomy, Judges-Ruth, and Ezekiel. He has also been involved in the production of the New Living Translation of the Bible and lectures and preaches around the world.
I loved this course given by a scholar who has spent many years thinking and writing about the book of Deuteronomy. This is a good complement and supplement to Dr. Block's NIVAC commentary on Deuteronomy.
The course concentrates on the theology of Deuteronomy as "the Gospel according to Moses." It covers chapters 1-12, 14, 17, and 31-34. Lots of information and insight--I took 70 pages of notes.
