Deuteronomy 7:14

14 You will be more blessed than any other group of people. No one will be sterile or infertile—not among you or your animals.

Deuteronomy 7:14 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 7:14

Thou shalt be blessed above all people
Even with temporal blessings, besides those of a religious kind; they having the oracles of God, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service of God, and the promises, ( Romans 3:1 Romans 3:2 ) ( 9:4 ) ,

there shall not be male or female barren among you;
which to be was reckoned a reproach, and the contrary a blessing, ( Luke 1:25 ) ( Psalms 127:5 ) ( Psalms 128:3 Psalms 128:4 )

or among your cattle;
the Targum of Jonathan is, nor thy beasts barren of wool, and milk, and lambs.

Deuteronomy 7:14 In-Context

12 If you listen to these case laws and follow them carefully, the LORD your God will keep the covenant and display the loyalty that he promised your ancestors.
13 He will love you, bless you, and multiply you. He will bless the fruit of your wombs and the fruit of your fertile land—all your grain, your wine, your oil, and the offspring of your cattle and flocks—upon the very fertile land that he swore to your ancestors to give to you.
14 You will be more blessed than any other group of people. No one will be sterile or infertile—not among you or your animals.
15 The LORD will remove all sickness from you. As for all those dreadful Egyptian diseases you experienced, the Lord won't put them on you but will inflict them on all who hate you.
16 You will destroy all the peoples that the LORD your God is handing over to you. Show them no pity. And don't serve their gods because that would be a trap for you.
