Raymond Brown demonstrates how the timeless truths and universal principles of Deuteronomy offer us guidance applicable to the wide range of issues we encounter today, from business administration to personal morality. The Lord who demanded faithfulness then, in all the details of human life and society, continues to assert His authority over modern humanity.
