Deuteronomy 33:15 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 33:15

And for the chief things of the ancient mountains
Which were from the beginning of the world, and for which the land, possessed by the children of Joseph, Manasseh, and Ephraim, were famous; as the mountains of Gilead and Bashan, inherited by the former, and Mount Ephraim, and the mountains of Samaria, by the latter; which produced, besides great quantities of grass and corn, also vines, figs, olives, &c.

and for the precious things of the lasting hills;
which will endure as long as the world, the same as before in other words; and which precious things may be emblems of the spiritual blessings of grace, provided in an everlasting covenant, and given to Christ for his people before the world began, or any mountains and hills were formed, and which are as lasting and as immovable as they are; see ( Proverbs 8:22-31 ) , ( Isaiah 54:10 ) ( 2 Timothy 1:9 ) ( Ephesians 1:3 ) .

Deuteronomy 33:15 In-Context

13 Of Yosef he said: "May ADONAI bless his land with the best from the sky, for the dew, and for what comes from the deep beneath,

14 with the best of what the sun makes grow, with the best of what comes up each month,

15 with the best from the mountains of old, with the best from the eternal hills,

16 with the best from the earth and all that fills it, and the favor of him who lived in the [burning] bush. May blessing come on the head of Yosef, on the brow of the prince among his brothers.

17 His firstborn bull - glory is his; his horns are those of a wild ox; With them he will gore the peoples, all of them, to the ends of the earth. These are the myriads of Efrayim; these are the thousands of M'nasheh."
