Discovery BoxDeuteronomy 1:35 
Context1:35 “Not a single person 1 of this evil generation will see the good land that I promised to give to your ancestors!
Deuteronomy 19:19
Context19:19 you must do to him what he had intended to do to the accused. In this way you will purge 2 evil from among you.
1 tn Heb “Not a man among these men.”
2 tn Heb “you will burn out” (בִּעַרְתָּ, bi’arta). Like a cancer, unavenged sin would infect the whole community. It must, therefore, be excised by the purging out of its perpetrators who, presumably, remained unrepentant (cf. Deut 13:6; 17:7, 12; 21:21; 22:21-22, 24; 24:7).
