Answer:
The first chapter of Deuteronomy talks of the people's rebellious ways, the election of leaders to help Moses judge and solve cases, the spying of the lands they are to possess, and the anger of God against them, resulting in the declaration that none of the present generations of the Israelites will live to see the land they are to inhabit except Caleb.
Explanation:
The Book of Deuteronomy chapter 1 begins with Moses relaying the message from God ordering the Israelites to leave Horeb. Then, he also helped elect leaders from among the twelve tribes, just as the people demanded and in accordance with God's will. These judges will help in solving cases that the people may have, and also to reduce the workload of Moses alone.
After that, twelve spies were sent to inspect the land that was before them till the Valley of Eshkol. These spies came back with fruits from the land they had inspected. But the Israelites continued to rebel against the Lord and Moses, which angered the Lord. So, He declared that none of the people will live to see the land that God is giving them except "Caleb son of Jephunneh". Even Moses will not see the land nor will he enter it. This led to the Israelites staying longer at Kadesh.
