31:30–32:47 In ancient times, the validity of a treaty arrangement between individuals or nations was secured by both parties’ vows. Israel’s promise was in the song of witness that Moses composed under divine inspiration (31:19-22). When Israel sang the song (presumably as part of a regular covenant-renewal ceremony; 31:21), they invoked upon themselves the covenant’s judgments and reminded themselves of its promises.
