“These are the words of the covenant, which the Lord commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, beside the covenant which he made with them in Horeb.”
These are the words of the covenant that the LORD commanded Moses to make with the people of Israel in the land of Moab, in addition to the covenant that he had made with them at Horeb — covenant renewal language: the Moab covenant supplements the Horeb covenant. The repetition marks transition: new chapter, new audience (a new generation).
