Joshua the New Leader of Israel

1 Then Moses went and spoke these words to all Israel.
2 And he said to them: “I aam one hundred and twenty years old today. I can no longer bgo out and come in. Also the Lord has said to me, c‘You shall not cross over this Jordan.’  
3 The Lord your God aHimself crosses over before you; He will destroy these nations from before you, and you shall dispossess them. bJoshua himself crosses over before you, just cas the Lord has said.

Deuteronomy 31:1

MOSES ENCOURAGES THE PEOPLE AND JOSHUA. (Deuteronomy 31:1-8)

Moses went and spake—It is probable that this rehearsal of the law extended over several successive days; and it might be the last and most important day on which the return of Moses to the place of assembly is specially noticed. In drawing his discourse towards a conclusion, he adverted to his advanced age; and although neither his physical nor intellectual powers had suffered any decay (Deuteronomy 34:7), yet he knew, by a special revelation, that the time had arrived when he was about to be withdrawn from the superintendence and government of Israel.
