Final answer:
Moses is not permitted by God to enter the promised land; instead, he is allowed to view it from Mount Nebo before he dies.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the story in the Hebrew Bible, God will not allow Moses to enter the promised land, but He will allow Moses to see it from a distance. Moses leads the Hebrews out of Egypt and to the border of Canaan, the promised land. However, due to an incident where Moses disobeys God's instructions at Meribah (Numbers 20:8-12), he is told that he will not enter the land with the people of Israel. Despite this, in Deuteronomy 34:1-4, God permits Moses to go up to Mount Nebo, from where he is granted a view of the entire promised land before he dies. Although he was not allowed to enter, God promised that the land would be given to the Israelites. Instead of entering the promised land, Moses stayed on Mount Nebo until his death, and Joshua succeeded him as the leader who would lead the Israelites into Canaan.
