Deuteronomy 1:11 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 1:11

The Lord God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many
more as ye are
This prayer he made, or this blessing he pronounced on them, to show that he did not envy their increase, nor was any ways uneasy at it, but rejoiced in it, though he gave it as a reason of his not being able to govern them alone:

and bless you, as he hath promised you:
with all kind of blessings, as he had often promised their fathers.

Deuteronomy 1:11 In-Context

9 At that time I said, "I am not able to take care of you by myself.

10 The Lord your God has made you grow in number so that there are as many of you as there are stars in the sky.

11 I pray that the Lord, the God of your ancestors, will give you a thousand times more people and do all the wonderful things he promised.

12 But I cannot take care of your problems, your troubles, and your arguments by myself.

13 So choose some men from each tribe -- wise men who have understanding and experience -- and I will make them leaders over you."
