Deuteronomy 7:14 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 7:14

Thou shalt be blessed above all people
Even with temporal blessings, besides those of a religious kind; they having the oracles of God, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service of God, and the promises, ( Romans 3:1 Romans 3:2 ) ( 9:4 ) ,

there shall not be male or female barren among you;
which to be was reckoned a reproach, and the contrary a blessing, ( Luke 1:25 ) ( Psalms 127:5 ) ( Psalms 128:3 Psalms 128:4 )

or among your cattle;
the Targum of Jonathan is, nor thy beasts barren of wool, and milk, and lambs.

Deuteronomy 7:14 In-Context

12 And this is what will happen: When you, on your part, will obey these directives, keeping and following them, God, on his part, will keep the covenant of loyal love that he made with your ancestors:
13 He will love you, he will bless you, he will increase you.
14 You'll be blessed beyond all other peoples: no sterility or barrenness in you or your animals.
15 God will get rid of all sickness. And all the evil afflictions you experienced in Egypt he'll put not on you but on those who hate you.
16 You'll make mincemeat of all the peoples that God, your God, hands over to you. Don't feel sorry for them. And don't worship their gods - they'll trap you for sure.
