Deuteronomy 30:5 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 30:5

And the Lord thy God will bring thee into the land which thy
fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it
That the Jews upon their conversion in the latter day will return to the land of Judea again, and possess it, is the sense of many passages of Scripture; among others, see ( Jeremiah 30:18 ) ( Ezekiel 28:25 Ezekiel 28:26 ) ( Ezekiel 37:21 Ezekiel 37:22 Ezekiel 37:25 ) ( Zechariah 10:10 ) ; the above Targum is;

``the Word of the Lord will bring thee''

and he will do thee good;
both in things temporal and spiritual; see ( Ezekiel 34:24-31 ) ;

and multiply thee above thy fathers;
increase their number more than ever they were in any age; for they shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered, ( Hosea 1:10 Hosea 1:11 ) .

3 When all of that happens, the LORD your God will bless you with great success again. He will be very kind to you. He'll bring you back from all of the nations where he scattered you.
4 Suppose you have been forced to go away to the farthest land on earth. The LORD your God will bring you back even from there.
5 He will bring you to the land that belonged to your people long ago. You will take it over. He'll make you better off than your people were. He'll increase your numbers more than he increased theirs.
6 The LORD your God will keep your hearts from being stubborn. He'll do the same thing for your children and their children. Then you will love him with all your heart and with all your soul. And you will live.
7 The LORD your God will put all of those curses on your enemies. They hated you and hunted you down.
