Deuteronomy 28
1. The blessings for obedience
15. The curses for disobedience














The LORD
The Hebrew term used here is "YHWH," the sacred and personal name of God, often rendered as "Yahweh." This name signifies God's eternal existence and His covenantal faithfulness. In the context of Deuteronomy, it emphasizes the personal relationship between God and Israel, underscoring His role as the divine provider and protector.

will make you prosper abundantly
The Hebrew root for "prosper" is "yathar," which means to have abundance or to be left over. This phrase indicates not just survival but thriving in every aspect of life. It reflects God's promise of blessing and prosperity as a result of obedience to His commandments, highlighting the covenantal relationship where blessings follow faithfulness.

in the fruit of your womb
This phrase refers to fertility and the blessing of children. In ancient Israel, children were considered a sign of divine favor and a means of continuing one's legacy. The Hebrew word "peri" (fruit) symbolizes productivity and blessing, emphasizing the importance of family and lineage in God's plan.

the offspring of your livestock
Livestock was a primary measure of wealth and sustenance in ancient agrarian societies. The Hebrew word "behemah" (livestock) signifies not only economic prosperity but also God's provision for daily needs. This promise of abundant livestock underscores God's comprehensive care for His people's material well-being.

and the produce of your land
The Hebrew term "adamah" (land) is significant as it ties the people to the Promised Land, a central theme in Deuteronomy. The "produce" or "tvuah" signifies the agricultural bounty that God promises. This reflects the covenantal blessing of the land, a gift from God that requires stewardship and obedience.

in the land the LORD swore to your fathers to give you
This phrase recalls the Abrahamic covenant, where God promised the land to Abraham and his descendants. The Hebrew word "natan" (to give) emphasizes the land as a divine gift, not earned but granted by God's grace. It serves as a reminder of God's faithfulness to His promises and the importance of the land in Israel's identity and mission.

(11) In goods.--Rather, in good or goodness, i.e., in prosperity. "Goodness" in Jeremiah 33:9.

Verse 11. - The Lord shall make thee plenteous in goods; literally, shall make thee to abound for good; i.e. shall not only give thee abundance, but cause it to redound to thy felicity.
