L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 8:1-20

REMEMBER! DO NOT FORGET! (vs.1-20) Israel was left no opportunity to say they did not understand what God was telling them. He repeated it in many different ways and insisted on it in no uncertain terms. Verse 1 emphasizes again that Israel must observe every commandment God gave, that they might live and multiply in possession of their land. They must remember how the Lord God had led them all through their forty years of trial in the wilderness. That history was designed by God to humble... read more

The idea of this chapter is that all moral duties have been defined and... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Deuteronomy 8:7-9

There was a striking contrast to Israel, considered only in a natural sense, between the land of Canaan and the wilderness. But take it in a gospel sense, and how is the description heightened! The law was a shadow of good things to come: And therefore the goodly land, to which JESUS brings his people, is a land not simply of brooks of water, but there is a river proceeding out of the throne of GOD and the LAMB, the streams thereof make glad the city of our GOD. It is watered with the gifts and... read more
