In view of God's past faithfulness the Israelites should keep "this covenant"(v. 9), the Mosaic Covenant, so that they might prosper in the future. Moses assembled the people to commit themselves anew to their covenant with God. God had made the Mosaic Covenant with all the Israelites, not just the generation that stood before Moses (vv. 14-15).
