Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb, תַּעֲנִיק֙, you will provide, governs the sentence, with several prepositional phrases detailing the sources of provision. The structure emphasizes the act of giving and the specific resources from which to give.
The Hebrew word order places the verb at the forefront, highlighting the action of providing, while the subsequent phrases specify the means — from your flock, your threshing floor, and your winepress — reinforcing the abundance expected in the act of giving.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates הַעֲנֵ֤יק as ἐφόδιον, which means 'to provide' or 'to furnish.' This choice suggests a focus on the provision aspect rather than the ornamental connotation of the Hebrew, indicating a more straightforward interpretation of the act of giving.
This rendering aligns with the broader theme in the Septuagint of emphasizing practical actions over metaphorical language, reflecting the needs of the community.

Read Robert Jamieson on Deuteronomy 15 →Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(14) Thou shalt furnish him liberally.—The beneficence of this provision is noticeable. Those who had fallen into poverty, when they had served their time, must be provided with means for a fresh start in life. And since the Jewish commentator regards the slavery of Hebrew men as chiefly a consequence of theft (If he be sold unto thee, “when the supreme court has sold him for his theft “), it would seem that, under Jewish law, even convicted thieves, when the term of their servitude was over, were to be provided with the means of obtaining an honest livelihood. This state of things is above the attainments of Christian England at the present date.

Read AdamClarke on Deuteronomy 15 →CambridgeThe Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges14. thou shalt furnish him liberally] Lit. make-him-a-necklace (with emphatic repetition of the vb.). In this metaphor is the idea of loading or that of ornamenting (embellishing, equipping) the governing one? Probably both are combined; the metaphor rising from the primitive custom of hoarding the family wealth in heavy necklaces or headdresses. Less likely is the derivation from the use of the collar or necklace as a badge of rank or office (as it was in Egypt, Genesis 41:42, and Persia, 1Es 3:6). A similar liberality is exercised in Arabia (Doughty, Ar. Des. i. 554). ‘It is not many years, “if their house-lord fears Ullah,” before he will give them their liberty; and then he sends them…

יְהֹוָה (ye.ho.vah) is the proper name of the God of Israel, often rendered as Jehovah or the Lord. It signifies the self-existent or eternal nature of God. The name is closely associated with the revelation to Moses in Exodus 3:12-15 and is used in conjunction with other terms to denote sacred places. Some scholars suggest it derives from a root meaning 'to bring into being.'
