Deuteronomy 8:10 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 8:10

When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless
the Lord thy God
For as the Lord would furnish them with plenty of food, they might eat of it liberally, provided they did not indulge to intemperance, as everyone may whom God has blessed with a fulness of good things; and this shows that we are to return thanks to God for a plentiful meal, as well as to ask a blessing on it:

for the good land which he hath given thee;
which supplied them with such plenty, that they enjoyed full meals every day.

Deuteronomy 8:10 In-Context

8 It has wheat, barley, vines, fig trees, pomegranates, olive oil and honey.

9 There is plenty of food in that land. You will have everything you need. Its rocks have iron in them. And you can dig copper out of its hills.

10 When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise the LORD your God. Praise him for the good land he has given you.

11 Make sure you don't forget the LORD your God. Don't fail to obey his commands, laws and rules. I'm giving them to you today.

12 But suppose you don't obey his commands. And suppose you have plenty to eat. You build fine houses and settle down in them.
