About this episode

The episode discusses the transition of spiritual leadership after Moses and the inadequacy of past leaders in preventing the nation's spiritual decline.

Moses is about to die, but God will not leave the nation without spiritual witness-leaders. With the advantage of many centuries behind us, we can see that although these were good and helpful they were ultimately not enough to keep the people from falling away. Something more was needed and was provided in the fulness of time.
