Moses’ parting words found at Deuteronomy 30:19, 20 gave what assurance to the Israelites?What did Moses say? (Read Deuteronomy 30:19, 20.) The nation of Israel had prospects for a wonderful future. With Jehovah’s blessing, the Israelites could live for a long time in the land that he had promised them. And what a beautiful, fruitful land it was! Moses described it for them: “Great and fine cities that you did not build, houses full of all sorts of good things that you did not work for, hewn cisterns that you did not dig, and vineyards and olive trees that you did not plant.”—Deut. 6:10, 11

Why did God allow other nations to conquer Israel?Moses also gave the Israelites a warning. In order to continue living in their bountiful land, they had to obey Jehovah’s commandments. Moses urged them to “choose life” by listening to Jehovah and by “sticking to him.” However, the Israelites rejected Jehovah. So in time God allowed the Assyrians and later the Babylonians to conquer them and take them into exile.—2 Ki. 17:6-8, 13, 14; 2 Chron. 36:15-17, 20.
