Background on Nicetas of Remesiana

In his own words on Deuteronomy

  • Deuteronomy 31:30

    Moses again, when about to depart from this life, sang a fear-inspiring canticle in Deuteronomy. He left the song as a sort of testament to the people of Israel, to teach them the kind of funeral they should expect, if ever they abandoned God.
