G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 8:1-20

Still continuing this discourse, Moses declared that the land when purified of the corrupt people was to be possessed by the people of God as His chosen nation.

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Deuteronomy 8:1-20

Lest We Forget Deuteronomy 8:1-20 INTRODUCTORY WORDS We remember a verse which reads, "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness." There are some who desire to hold themselves completely to the New Testament message for the Church. This, however, cannot be right, in view of the Scripture we have just quoted. The Old Testament is filled with messages to Israel, or, concerning Israel, which have a... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 8:7-10

Yahweh Purposes To Make Wonderful Provision For Them (Deuteronomy 8:7-10 ). In these verses we have a glowing picture of all the good things which Yahweh has ahead for His covenant people. Analysis in the words of Moses: a For Yahweh your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of wadis of water, of fountains and springs, flowing forth in valleys and hills (Deuteronomy 8:7). b A land of wheat and barley, and vines and fig-trees and pomegranates; a land of olive-trees and honey; a... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Deuteronomy 8:1-20

CRITICAL NOTES.—In addition to the danger of being ensnared by idolatry, after their settlement in Canaan, Israel might fall into pride and forget God in the enjoyment of its products. To guard against this, Moses reviews the past and indicates the Divine purpose in the 40 years’ wanderings.Deuteronomy 8:1. Renewed admonition to keep the law.Deuteronomy 8:2. Remember that God’s designs may be realised and right effects produced (Deuteronomy 13:3; 2 Chronicles 32:31). Humble, i.e., to bring them... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Deuteronomy 8:1-20

By a miracle the Lord preserved the clothes of the Israelites from wearing and decay, or by means of trade and war with the supplies they brought from Egypt, and by their own manufactures in the deserts; for they were never seen in nakedness and rags. The beautiful cloth of the tabernacle was all manufactured in the vicinity of mount Sinai; consequently, they could do much towards manufacturing their own raiment. Deuteronomy 8:9 . Dig brass. ... read more

Deuteronomy 8:7-9The Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good land.The land of promiseWe will first take the central picture which is presented to us, and we shall then notice the neighbouring thoughts held up to us. “The Lord bringeth thee into a good land.” These words were uttered, as you know, to a number of people who had never seen anything but the wilderness. They had not an actual knowledge, but they had only heard by description, by their fathers’ memory lingering upon what they had once... read more
