Contextual Overview

8 So keep all the orders which I give you today, so that you may be strong, and go in and take the land which is to be your heritage; 9 And that your days may be long in the land which the Lord gave by an oath to your fathers and to their seed after them, a land flowing with milk and honey. 10 For the land where you are going is not like the land of Egypt from which you have come, where you put in your seeds, watering them with your foot, like a planted garden: 11 But the land where you are going is a land of hills and valleys, drinking in the rain of heaven: 12 A land cared for by the Lord your God: the eyes of the Lord your God are on it at all times from one end of the year to the other. 13 And it will be that if you truly give ear to the orders which I put before you this day, loving the Lord your God and worshipping him with all your heart and all your soul, 14 Then I will send rain on your land at the right time, the early rains and the late rains, so that you may get in your grain and your wine and your oil. 15 And I will give grass in your fields for your cattle, so that you may have food in full measure. 16 But take care that your hearts are not turned to false ways so that you become servants and worshippers of other gods; 17 For if you do so, the wrath of the Lord will be burning against you, and the heaven will be shut up so that there is no rain and the land will give no fruit; and in a very little time you will be cut off from the good land which the Lord is giving you.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And I will send grass in thy fields for thy cattle,.... By giving plentiful showers of rain at proper times, to cause it to spring up and grow, that so there might be food for the cattle of every sort, greater or lesser; see Psalms 104:13,

that thou mayest eat and be full; which refers to the preceding verse as well as to this; and the sense is, that the Israelites might eat of and enjoy the fruits of the earth to satiety; namely, their corn, wine, and oil; and that their cattle might have grass enough to supply them with.
