Deuteronomy 28:11 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 28:11

And the Lord shall make thee plenteous in goods
In all temporal good things, give them an affluence of them, even all things richly to enjoy; the Targum of Jonathan is,

``the Word of the Lord shall''
in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the
fruit of thy ground:
increase their children, cattle, and substance, as before, ( Deuteronomy 28:4 ) ; in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers to give thee;
the land of Canaan, often thus described.

Deuteronomy 28:11 In-Context

9 The LORD will establish you as his holy people, as he promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the LORD your God and walk in obedience to him.
10 Then all the peoples on earth will see that you are called by the name of the LORD, and they will fear you.
11 The LORD will grant you abundant prosperity—in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your ground—in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you.
12 The LORD will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none.
13 The LORD will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the LORD your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom.
