Deuteronomio 29:5 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 29:5

And I have led you forty years in the wilderness
From the time of their coming out of Egypt unto that day, which though not quite complete, is given as a round number. Eupolemus F4, an Heathen writer, confirms this date of the ministry of Moses among the Israelites; he says, Moses performed the office of a prophet forty years:

your clothes are not waxen old upon you:
were not worn out; all those forty years they had been in the wilderness, they had never wanted clothes fitting for them, according to their age and stature, and which decayed not; (See Gill on Deuteronomy 8:4);

and thy shoe is not waxen old upon thy foot;
which were necessary to wear in travelling, and especially in a rugged wilderness; and yet, thought they had been always in use during so long a time, were not worn out, which was really miraculous; (See Gill on Deuteronomy 8:4).

Deuteronomio 29:5 In-Context

3 gli occhi tuoi han vedute le calamitĂ  grandi con le quali furon provati, quei miracoli, quei gran prodigi;
4 ma, fino a questo giorno, l’Eterno non v’ha dato un cuore per comprendere, né occhi per vedere, né orecchi per udire.
5 Io vi ho condotti quarant’anni nel deserto; le vostre vesti non vi si son logorate addosso, né i vostri calzari vi si son logorati ai piedi.
6 Non avete mangiato pane, non avete bevuto vino né bevanda alcoolica, affinché conosceste che io sono l’Eterno, il vostro Dio.
7 E quando siete arrivati a questo luogo, e Sihon re di Heshbon, e Og re di Basan sono usciti contro noi per combattere, noi li abbiamo sconfitti,
