23 Then will the Lord drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves.
23 then the Lord will drive out all these nations before you, and you will dispossess nations larger and stronger than you.
23 then the Lord will drive out all these nations before you, and you will dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.
23 God on his part will drive out all these nations that stand in your way. Yes, he'll drive out nations much bigger and stronger than you.
23 then the Lord will drive out all these nations from before you, and you will dispossess greater and mightier nations than yourselves.
23 Then the Lord will drive out all the nations ahead of you, though they are much greater and stronger than you, and you will take over their land.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Deuteronomy 11:23
Commentary on Deuteronomy 11:18-25
(Read Deuteronomy 11:18-25)
Let all be directed by the three rules here given. 1. Let our hearts be filled with the word of God. There will not be good practices in the life, unless there be good thoughts, good affections, and good principles in the heart. 2. Let our eyes be fixed upon the word of God, having constant regard to it as the guide of our way, as the rule of our work, Psalm 119:30. 3. Let our tongues be employed about the word of God. Nor will any thing do more to cause prosperity, and keeping up religion in a nation, than the good education of children.
