This preference is reflected in the Hebrew text which numbers this verse as 28:69 rather than 29:1 (See Bible Knowledge Commentary: Old Testament - Page 311 - see all the comments on Deuteronomy). Currid adds "The Masoretic Text includes this verse as the final one of chapter 28, as if it were a subscription to the giving of the entire law code. While some commentators would disagree with this interpretation, it is probably correct." NET NOTE - Beginning with Dt 29:1, the verse numbers through Dt 29:29 in the English Bible differ from the verse numbers in the Hebrew text (BHS), with 29:1 ET = 28:69 HT, 29:2 ET = 29:1 HT, 29:3 ET = 29:2 HT, etc., through 29:29 ET = 29:28 HT. With Dt 30:1 the verse numbers in the ET and HT are again the same. THE COVENANT ON THE PLAINS OF MOAB These are the words of the covenant (beriyth) which the LORD commanded Moses to make (karath - cut) with the sons of Israel in the land of Moab, besides the covenant (beriyth) which He had made (karath - cut) with them at Horeb - What is besides (in addition to) the covenant? While clearly most would agree that Deuteronomy is a renewal of the Covenant at Horeb (see Exodus 24:3-7+) (See Abrahamic versus Mosaic). However, in Deuteronomy Moses is actually expounding in more detail the Covenant at Horeb because now the nation is about to enter the Promised Land and needed more specific instructions found in this book. They also needed the intense warnings of Deuteronomy 28, although to be sure many of these warnings are also found in Leviticus 26:1-46+. The reason I personally think this refers to the Covenant at Sinai (with several additions which Moses declares to the second generation in Deuteronomy) is because of the statement (in context of this chapter) in Dt 29:25 “Then men will say, ‘Because they forsook the covenant (beriyth) of the LORD, the God of their fathers, which He made (karath - cut) with them when He brought them out of the land of Egypt. Further, the phrase besides (in addition to) the covenant which He made (karath - cut) with them at Horeb could also be explained by the fact that now the second generation is entering into this covenant as alluded to in Dt 29:11 (covenant...the LORD your God is making [karath - cut] with you today). One could reason that the covenant the second generation entered into was in addition to the covenant the first generation entered into at Sinai. It was the same covenant, with the difference being there was the addition now of the second generation formally entering into the covenant. I could be wrong, but this seems to be a reasonable explanation (please send me email to preceptaustin.org if you have any additional thoughts. Thank you.) And so clearly there is a difference of opinion on the meaning of the phrase besides the covenant - Most commentators favor it is a covenant renewal of the Covenant at Sinai made with the first generation, but others (especially dispensationalists) feel it is the so-called Palestinian Covenant, and John MacArthur (who also has a dispensational view) has a third view. Below are several comments: John MacArthur's interpretation - The majority of interpreters view the covenant stated here as a reference to the covenant made at Sinai. According to this view, the covenant that God made with Israel at Sinai (Horeb) was renewed in Moab. However, this verse clearly states that the covenant of which Moses now speaks was “besides,” or “in addition to,” the previous covenant. This was another covenant distinct from the one made at Sinai. This other covenant is viewed by some interpreters as the Palestinian Covenant, which gave Israel the title to the land (see Dt 30:5+). However, the emphasis of these two chapters is not on the Land, but on the change of Israel’s heart (see the contrast between Dt 29:4 and Dt 30:6+). It was exactly this change of heart which the later prophets would term “The New Covenant” (see Jer 31:31–34+; Eze 36:26-27+ - SEE MY RELATED STUDY NEW COVENANT IN THE OLD TESTAMENT). In response to Israel’s certain failure under the provisions of the Sinaitic Covenant (Dt 29:23–28), Moses anticipated the New Covenant under which Israel would be obedient to the Lord and finally reap His blessings (Dt 30:1–10+). (See MacArthur Study Bible- Page 240) Daniel Block - Although many interpret this statement as distinguishing between the covenant made on the Plains of Moab and one Yahweh previously made with Israel at Sinai, this distinction is unwarranted. Since Moses opened his second address by reciting the Decalogue (Dt 5:6–21), the essence of covenant relationship obviously remains the same, as do both Yahweh’s and Israel’s roles within that relationship. What is happening on the Plains of Moab is not the establishment of a new covenant, but the renewal of the original covenant first made with Abraham and then established with Israel at Sinai. Since the people standing before Moses were not involved in the proceedings at Horeb forty years earlier, these procedures are necessary to bind this generation to the covenant ratified at Horeb (Dt 5:2–3) and to ensure that they enter the Promised Land as the covenant people of Yahweh.
