Chapter 30 Vows and Oaths -The Importance of our Word; this section is given by Moses to the heads of the tribes-Matot. V.1-2 Is your word your bond, your oath? Yes it is, so be careful! Speak life

Chapter 33 Starts out explaining about their journeys, all of them, but the journey is a wilderness and mountain top experience. It is a picture of “Progressive Revelation”, the stages of life in our journeys. You are maturing, in stages, -massa-, (see definitions). You are becoming an overcomer. You are becoming a life giving Spirit of Yahweh in Yeshua.
