Context of Deuteronomy 31:30

28Now bring to me all the leaders and officers of your tribes. I want to tell them about all these things. And I want the sky and the earth to hear what I will say to them. 29I know that, after my death, you will do more and more wicked things. You will turn away from the good things that I have commanded you to do. In future days, you will do wicked things against the Lord. Because of that, you will have great trouble. You will make the Lord angry because of the things that you do.’ Then Moses spoke the words of this song, from the beginning to the end. All the Israelites met together and they listened to him.

• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 30In ancient times, vows from both parties secured a treaty between individuals or nations.
