Moses looks beyond the threatened scattering and promises that when Israel returns to the LORD, God will gather and restore the nation. He says the commandment is not inaccessible in heaven or beyond the sea but near them, in mouth and heart, so that they may do it. The chapter closes by setting life and death, blessing and cursing, before Israel and urging them to choose life by loving and cleaving to the LORD.
