Context of Deuteronomy 1:37
35‘You people who are now alive are wicked. None of you will see the good land that I promised to give to your ancestors. 36Only Jephunneh's son Caleb will see it. He has obeyed me faithfully. So I will give to him and to his descendants the land that he walked on.’ As for me, the Lord became angry with me also, because of you. He said to me, ‘You also will not go into the land. 38But your servant Joshua, the son of Nun, will go in there. You must tell him to be brave. He will lead the Israelites into the land. It will become their land. 39You thought that enemies would catch your small children. But they are the people who will go into the land. Your children who are still too young to know the difference between good and bad will also go in there. I will give the land to them and it will become their land.

But we know that it was several years afterwards that Moses betrayed an unhappy spirit of distrust at the waters of strife (Psa 106:32, 33). This verse must be considered therefore as a parenthesis.Read the comment
