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














(8) Thy storehouses.--The word is only found here and in Proverbs 3:9-10, "Honour the Lord with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: so shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine." There is the same kind of contrast here which has been already pointed out in Deuteronomy 28:5. The "gathering in" to the barn, and the "putting forth" of the hand--the income and the expenditure--are alike blessed. This contrast is clear in the Hebrew words employed.

And he shall bless thee in the land.--Fixity of tenure in the Divine inheritance is promised here.

Verse 8. - The effect of the blessing should be seen, not only in the supremacy of Israel over all opposition, but in the abundance of their possessions, in the success of their undertakings, and in the respect in which they should be held by all nations. Storehouses. The Hebrew word (אֲסָמִים), which occurs only here and in Proverbs 3:10, is properly thus rendered. It comes from a root which signifies to lay up.
