Deuteronomy 10

Here in this chapter we read of God's mercies to Israel. He wrote the Law again, practically renewing the covenant which they broke. He allowed Aaron's son to take his place as priest even though the Aaronic priesthood failed through Aaron's connivance in the golden calf incident. He rewarded and blessed the tribe of Levi for being faithful to Him during that sad incident. He gave them the privilege to minister to Him in the tabernacle. God will be their inheritance. He heard Moses' intercession and so did not destroy Israel. Then He allowed them to go into the Promise Land despite their colossal failure.

Then the chapter closes by exhorting Israel to be obedient to God.
