What is Deuteronomy?

Deuteronomy is a book found in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible as well as in Jewish scripture. It is the fifth and final book of the Torah, or the Jewish Pentateuch, and contains a series of speeches delivered by Moses to the Israelites before they enter the Promised Land. The word "Deuteronomy" comes from the Greek words "deutero" meaning "second" and "nomos" meaning "law", indicating that the book is a repetition or restatement of the laws given to the Israelites earlier in the Torah. It emphasizes the importance of obeying God's commands, serving Him alone, and the blessings and curses that result from obedience or disobedience to His law.
