Deuteronomy 10:11 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 10:11

And the Lord said unto me, arise, take thy journey before the
people
Here Moses goes on with his relation of things at Mount Sinai, how that upon his supplication for the people, on account of the destruction they were threatened with for their idolatry, the Lord was graciously pleased not only to hear him and forgive the people, but ordered him to go before them, and lead them on towards the land of Canaan he had promised them, ( Exodus 32:34 ) ( 33:1 ) ,

that they may go in and possess the land,
which I sware unto their fathers to give unto them; and which had it not been for their later murmurings and rebellions, they had been in the possession of it in a little time, especially after their departure from Sinai.
