<h2>Introduction</h2> | <h2>Introduction</h2> | ||
Sefer Devarim's accounts of events from the forty years in the Wilderness are usually briefer than the originals. When it comes to the retelling of the nation's traversing of the lands of Edom, Moav and Ammon, however, the opposite is true.  Sefer Bemidbar (<a href="Bemidbar20-14-22" data-aht="source">Chapter 20</a>-<a href="Bemidbar21-11-13" data-aht="source">21</a>) mentions the encounters with the various nations only in passing, while Moshe elaborates on them for an entire chapter (<a href="Devarim2" data-aht="source">Devarim 2</a>). Why was this such an important topic that it merited so much press space in Moshe's closing speech, while it is almost totally ignored earlier? What message did Moshe wish to relay through the many details he added? | Sefer Devarim's accounts of events from the forty years in the Wilderness are usually briefer than the originals.
