Deuteronomio 33:1-2

1 OR quest’è la benedizione con la quale Mosè, uomo di Dio, benedisse i figliuoli d’Israele, avanti la sua morte.

2 Disse adunque: Il Signore venne di Sinai, E apparve loro di Seir; Egli risplendè dal monte di Paran, E venne dalle decine delle migliaia de’ santi, Avendo dalla sua destra il fuoco della Legge, per darla loro.

This chapter relates the blessings Moses pronounced upon the people of Israel a little before his death; first, in general, on account of their having a law given them in so glorious a manner, De 33:1-5; then, in particular, each of the tribes distinctly is blessed, Reuben, De 33:6; Judah, De 33:7; Levi, De 33:8-11; Benjamin, De 33:12; Joseph, De 33:13-17; Zebulun and Issachar, De 33:18,19; Gad, De 33:20,21; Dan, De 33:22; Naphtali, De 33:23; Asher, De 33:24,25; and the chapter is concluded with some strong intimations of what God was unto the people of Israel in general, and of what he had done and would do for them; all which are expressive of their great happiness, De 33:26-29.
