Context of Deuteronomy 1:20

18And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye should do. 19And when we departed from Horeb, we went through all that great and terrible wilderness, which ye saw by the way of the mountain of the Amorites, as the LORD our God commanded us; and we came to Kadeshbarnea.
