Deuteronômio 8:6 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 8:6

Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God,
&c.] Not only because they are the commands of God, and of a covenant God and Father, which are reasons sufficient for the observance of them; but because the Lord had dealt so bountifully with them, in providing food and raiment for them in the wilderness, which always continued with them; and because, when he afflicted them, it was a fatherly chastisement, with great tenderness and compassion, and for their good; all which laid them under obligations to keep the commands of God, whatsoever he had enjoined them, whether of the moral, ceremonial, or judicial kind:

to walk in his ways, and to fear him;
to walk in the ways he directed, to be under an awe of his majesty, a fear of offending him, and a reverential affection for him, such as children have to a father.

5 Saberás, pois, no teu coração que, como um homem corrige a seu filho, assim te corrige o Senhor teu Deus.

6 E guardarás os mandamentos de Senhor teu Deus, para andares nos seus caminhos, e para o temeres.

7 Porque o Senhor teu Deus te está introduzindo numa boa terra, terra de ribeiros de águas, de fontes e de nascentes, que brotam nos vales e nos outeiros;

8 terra de trigo e cevada; de vides, figueiras e romeiras; terra de oliveiras, de azeite e de mel;
