Summary of Today's Chumash

The seventh aliyah says that when we get to Israel, G-d will uproot the seven Canaanite nations for us, and we are to utterly destroy them and show them no consideration. Moreover, we are not to intermarry with them. Then we are told that G-d chose us to be his treasured people out of all the nations.

Moshe ends the parsha by telling us that G-d is faithful to keep His covenant with those that love him and keep his commandments, therefore we should keep his mitzvahs and do them.
