Malaquias 3:12 Meaning and Commentary

Malachi 3:12

And all nations shall call you blessed
When they shall see the land freed from the devouring locust, and other hurtful creatures; the former and the latter rains given in their season, and the earth yielding a large increase:

for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the Lord of hosts;
or a desirable F14 one; not only pleasant to themselves, being fruitful, but wished for by others, by their neighbouring nations, who, seeing their prosperity, could not but desire to dwell with them; or delightsome to the Lord of hosts: thus Jarchi interprets it, the land that I delight in; and so Aben Ezra; to which agrees the Targum,

``and all nations shall praise you, because you dwell in the land of the house of my Shechinah or majesty, and do my will in it;''

and the Syriac version renders it, "the land of my delight": see ( Isaiah 62:4 ) .

Malaquias 3:12 In-Context

10 Trazei todos os dĂ­zimos ïżœ casa do tesouro, para que haja mantimento na minha casa, e depois fazei prova de mim, diz o Senhor dos exĂ©rcitos, se eu nĂŁo vos abrir as janelas do cĂ©u, e nĂŁo derramar sobre vĂłs tal bĂȘnção, que dela vos advenha a maior abastança.
11 Também por amor de vós reprovarei o devorador, e ele não destruirå os frutos da vossa terra; nem a vossa vide no campo lançarå o seu fruto antes do tempo, diz o Senhor dos exércitos.
12 E todas as naçÔes vos chamarão bem-aventurados; porque vós sereis uma terra deleitosa, diz o Senhor dos exércitos.
13 As vossas palavras foram agressivas para mim, diz o Senhor. Mas vĂłs dizeis: Que temos falado contra ti?
14 VĂłs tendes dito: lnĂștil Ă© servir a Deus. Que nos aproveita termos cuidado em guardar os seus preceitos, e em andar de luto diante do Senhor dos exĂ©rcitos?
