	Sefer Devarim -

	The Book of Deuteronomy

In the final book of Torah, Moses reviews the history and the laws given to the Jewish people (the Greek name Deuteronomy comes from the phrase Mishneh haTorah (Deut. 17:18), which means "the second telling of the law"). Obeying God's laws will bring blessing, while spurning them will bring disaster. Idolatry is repeatedly denounced.

There are thirty-four chapters (14,294 words, 54,892 letters), divided into eleven weekly readings:
