Deuteronomio 11:12 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 11:12

A land which the Lord thy God careth for
In a very particular and special manner; otherwise he has a general care of the whole world, and all the parts of it; for as the earth is his, and the fulness thereof, his providential care reaches everywhere; but as this spot was what he had chosen for his own residence, and the place of his worship, and for an habitation for his peculiar people; he exercised a more peculiar care over it, to make it fruitful, commodious, and pleasant; or which "he seeketh" ^F9; that is, the good of it, and to make it convenient, useful, and delightful to his people; yea, which he sought for and desired for his own habitation, ( Psalms 132:13 Psalms 132:14 ) ,

the eyes of the Lord thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of
the year even unto the end of the year;
his eyes of providence, to give the former and the latter rain, and that there be seedtime and harvest in their seasons, and that the fruits of it be produced at their proper time; some at the beginning, others at the end of the year, and others in the intervening months, and all wisely suited to the good of the inhabitants of it.

Deuteronomio 11:12 In-Context

10 Que la tierra a la cual entras para heredarla, no es como la tierra de Egipto de donde habéis salido, donde sembrabas tu simiente, y regabas con tu pie, como huerto de legumbres

11 La tierra a la cual pasáis para heredarla, es tierra de montes y de vegas; de la lluvia del cielo ha de beber las aguas

12 tierra de la cual el SEÑOR tu Dios procura; siempre están sobre ella los ojos del SEÑOR tu Dios, desde el principio del año hasta el fin de él

13 Y será que, si escuchareis cuidadosamente mis mandamientos que yo os mando hoy, amando al SEÑOR vuestro Dios, y sirviéndole con todo vuestro corazón, y con toda vuestra alma

14 yo daré la lluvia de vuestra tierra en su tiempo, la temprana y la tardía; y cogerás tu grano, y tu vino, y tu aceite
