Deuteronomy 11

This chapter is a stark contrast between blessing and cursing. Moses promises abundant rain, fruitful harvests, and prosperity if the people diligently obey God's commands. Conversely, he warns that drought, famine, and expulsion will follow disobedience. Moses instructs them to place the commandments not just in their hearts, but visibly on their houses. He concludes with the dramatic command to set the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the curse on Mount Ebal after they cross the Jordan, visually confirming the consequences of their choices.
