“Let the Lord ... appoint a man over the congregation ... that the congregation of the Lord may not be as sheep that have no shepherd” (27:16). Moses could not go into the Promised Land with the Israelites, and so they needed a new leader. Joshua, “a man in whom is the Spirit” filled that role. But the Lord also reminded the people of his commands for regular sacrifices and holy festivals (ch 28-29). Their lives were to center around worship, more than a human leader.

“On the Sabbath day”, each month, and at Passover and other holy festivals, Israel worshiped the Lord (28:9). God’s purpose for them in the Promised Land was to come to know him as their true Shepherd.
