Deuteronomy 33 · Grade 4

Blessings for Each Tribe

Name Date

Read and Think

Deuteronomy 33 records Moses' final blessing on the tribes, like Jacob's blessing in Genesis 49. It begins with God coming from Sinai with His holy ones. He gave the law out of love for His people.

Each tribe receives a word. Reuben would live. Judah would have help against enemies. Levi would teach God's law and serve at the altar. Benjamin is the beloved of Yahweh, covered by Him all day long. Joseph receives rich blessings of land and strength. Simeon is not named.

The song ends by praising Israel's God, not Israel. There is no one like Him. He is their eternal dwelling place, holding them with everlasting arms. Israel is happy only because they are a people saved by Yahweh, their shield and help.
