God told Moses he was going to die and that he needed to set Joshua in a position to take his place among the people. For am and many other scholars, it does seem that Moses was preparing Joshua to take his place long before now, but Moses waited until God said, "It's time." This was a reminder that Moses didn't just prepare someone he listened to God about who the person was to be. I have heard it said that preparing someone to follow you in your work is as important or more important than the work. We see Jesus taking a lot of time preparing those who would follow him. In the business world it ahs been seen that a good successor can take the business a long way but a bad one ends in disaster. This chapter reminds me that we need good successors, but also we need to make sure they are God's choice.
