11:2 And a know ye this day: for [I speak] not with your
children which have not known, and which have not seen the
chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his
mighty hand, and his stretched out arm,
(a) You who have seen God's graces with your eyes should be
moved, rather than your children who have only heard of
them.
11:5 And b what he did unto you in the wilderness, until ye
came into this place;
(b) As well concerning his benefits, as his corrections.
11:8 Therefore shall ye keep c all the commandments which I
command you this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and
possess the land, whither ye go to possess it;
(c) Because you have felt both his chastisement and his
benefits.
11:10 For the land, whither thou goest in to possess it, [is]
not as the land of Egypt, from whence ye came out, where
thou sowedst thy seed, and wateredst [it] with thy d
foot, as a garden of herbs:
(d) By making gutters for the water to come out of the
Nile river to water the land.
11:14 That I will give [you] the rain of your land in his due
season, e the first rain and the latter rain, that thou
mayest gather in thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil.
(e) In the seed time, and toward harvest.
11:16 Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not f
deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and
worship them;
(f) By devising foolish devotions according to your own
fantasies.
11:21 That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your
children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your
fathers to give them, as g the days of heaven upon the
earth.
(g) As long as the heavens and earth endure,
(2Pe 3:10,12).
11:24 Every place whereon the soles of h your feet shall tread
shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the
river, the river Euphrates, even unto the uttermost i
sea shall your coast be.
(h) This was accomplished in David and Solomon's time.
(i) The Mediterranean.
11:28 And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the
LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I
command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye
have not k known.
(k) He reproves the malice of men who leave that which is
certain to follow that which is uncertain.
11:30 [Are] they not on the other side Jordan, by the way l
where the sun goeth down, in the land of the Canaanites,
which dwell in the champaign over against Gilgal, beside
the plains of Moreh?
