The prophetic nature of this chapter puts the preceding chapters of 28 and 29 in a prophetic light as well. The curses were laid out for the second generation so that they would approach this covenant with God with a serious mindset. Now Moses tells them that there will be a day of restoration to follow the curses of chapter 28. For them, in the present day, they must reject the human tendency to be fatalistic about future judgment. Rather, they must pursue obedience in the context of what God would later accomplish. The full and complete restoration accomplished by Jesus Christ in His life and death fulfills what God promised to Israel. Each day, obedience must be pursued in light of Jesus' Return.
