Deuteronomio 8:14 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 8:14

Then thine heart be lifted up
As the heart is apt to be when riches increase; hence the advice in ( 1 Timothy 6:17 )

and thou forget the Lord thy God;
from whom all good things come, and who can take them away when he pleases, and therefore should be ever kept in mind, for ever looked to and trusted in for the continuance of them; yet such is the evil heart of man, and such the stupefying nature of riches, that they bring on forgetfulness of the author of them, lead off from dependence on him and obedience to him; in order to prevent which, an enumeration is given of wonderful instances of divine goodness to Israel, as follows:

which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of
bondage;
into a land abounding with all the above good things, and therefore it must be the highest ingratitude to forget such a God, and disobey his commands.

Deuteronomio 8:14 In-Context

12 que por ventura no comas y te sacies, y edifiques buenas casas en que mores,
13 y tus vacas y tus ovejas se aumenten, y la plata y el oro se te multiplique, y todo lo que tuvieres se te aumente,
14 y se eleve luego tu coraz贸n, y te olvides del SE脩OR tu Dios, que te sac贸 de tierra de Egipto, de casa de servidumbre;
15 que te sac贸 por un desierto grande y espantoso, de serpientes ardientes, y de escorpiones, y de sed, donde ning煤n agua hab铆a , y 茅l te sac贸 agua de la pe帽a, del pedernal;
16 que te sustent贸 con man谩 en el desierto, comida que tus padres no hab铆an conocido, afligi茅ndote y prob谩ndote, para a la postre hacerte bien;
