Gill's Exposition on Deuteronomy 28:8
The Lord shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses,.... Barns, granaries, and cellar, where their corn, wine, and oil, were laid up; by preserving the corn from being devoured by
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Deuteronomy 28:8
The LORD shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. No JFB commentary on these verses.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Deuteronomy 28:8
Shall command, i.e. shall by his sovereign and powerful providence give it, even when it seems furthest from thee, and not likely to come to time without a word of command from God himself.
Trapp's Commentary on Deuteronomy 28:8
Deuteronomy 28:8 The LORD shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.Ver. 8. The Lord shall command the blessing.] Now if he send his Mandamus, who shall withstand it?
Ellicott's Commentary on Deuteronomy 28:8
(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.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Deuteronomy 28:8
Verse 8. The Lord shall command the blessing upon thee] Every thing that thou hast shall come by Divine appointment; thou shalt have nothing casually, but every thing, both spiritual and temporal, shall come by the immediate command of God.
Cambridge Bible on Deuteronomy 28:8
