Deuteronomy 28:8 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 28:8

The Lord shall command the blessing upon thee in thy
storehouses
Barns, granaries, and cellar, where their corn, wine, and oil, were laid up; by preserving the corn from being devoured by vermin, and the casks of wine and oil from bursting and running out: and in all thou settest thine hand unto;
in all their manufactures, occupations, and trades, in which they were employed, and in the culture of their vines, olives, and other fruit trees: and he shall bless thee in the land which the Lord thy God giveth
thee;
with health and long life in it, and with an abundance of all good things, it being a land flowing with milk and honey.
