Contextual Overview
10 When you have eaten and are filled, you will honor and thank the Lord your God for the good land He has given you. 11 "Be careful not to forget the Lord your God by not keeping all His Laws which I am telling you today. 12 When you have eaten and are filled, and have built good houses to live in, 13 and when your cattle and flocks become many, and you get much silver and gold, and have many things for your own, 14 be careful not to become proud. Do not forget the Lord your God Who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house where you were servants. 15 He led you through the big desert that brought fear with its poisonous snakes and scorpions and thirsty ground where there was no water. He brought you water out of hard rock. 16 In the desert He fed you bread from heaven, which your fathers did not know about. He did this so you would not have pride and that He might test you. It was for your good in the end. 17 Be careful not to say in your heart, ‘My power and strong hand have made me rich.' 18 But remember the Lord your God. For it is He Who is giving you power to become rich. By this He may keep His agreement which He promised to your fathers, as it is this day. 19 If you ever forget the Lord your God and go to other gods to worship and work for them, I tell you today that you will be destroyed for sure.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Lest when thou hast eaten and art full,.... Not only once and again, but continually, day after day, being indulged with great plenty:
and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt [therein]; who for forty years had only dwelt in tents, moving from place to place in the wilderness.
