Deuteronomy 11:22 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 11:22

For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which
I command you to do them
Observe and take notice of them, even all of them, and so as not merely to have a theory or notional knowledge of them, but to put them in practice:

to love the Lord your God;
and show it by obeying his commands, and which is the end of the commandment, and the principle from which all obedience should flow:

to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;
see ( Deuteronomy 10:12 Deuteronomy 10:20 ) .

Deuteronomy 11:22 In-Context

20 and write them on the door-frames of your house and on your gates -
21 so that you and your children will live long on the land ADONAI swore to your ancestors that he would give them for as long as there is sky above the earth. (vii & Maftir)
22 "For if you will take care to obey all these mitzvot I am giving you, to do them, to love ADONAI your God, to follow all his ways and to cling to him,
23 then ADONAI will expel all these nations ahead of you; and you will dispossess nations bigger and stronger than you are.
24 Wherever the sole of your foot steps will be yours; your territory will extend from the desert to the L'vanon and from the River, the Euphrates River, to the Western Sea.
