And the Lord said unto Moses,.... After the covenant made with Israel in the plains of Moab, and the song delivered to them, De 29:1get thee up to this Mount Abarim; which was a range of mountains, so called from the passages by them over Jordan into the land of Canaan; one part of which was Nebo, and the top of that Pisgah, from whence Moses had the view of the good land here directed to; see Nu 33:47.
