Context — Blessings for Obediencegenerated

3If you follow My statutes and carefully keep My commandments,
4I will give you rains in their season, and the land will yield its produce, and the trees of the field will bear their fruit.
5Your threshing will continue until the grape harvest, and the grape harvest will continue until sowing time; you will have your fill of food to eat and will dwell securely in your land.
6And I will give peace to the land, and you will lie down with nothing to fear. I will rid the land of dangerous animals, and no sword will pass through your land.

Leviticus 26:4 is part of a passage where God outlines the blessings that will follow if the Israelites obey His commandments. The verse emphasizes the provision of rain, which is essential for agricultural success, and assures that the land will yield its produce and trees will bear fruit, reflecting God's care for His people and their needs.

The Key Word נָתַן, ve.na.ta.Tigenerated

The verb נָתַן (natan) means 'to give' and covers a wide range of applications, including the act of bestowing or providing something. In this verse, it indicates God's action in providing rain, which is vital for the growth of crops and the health of the land.

The parsing as a sequential perfect first person common singular shows that this is a definitive promise from God: 'I will give'. This indicates a future action that is certain, highlighting God's commitment to bless His people with the necessary resources for their sustenance.


How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated

This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.


Sentence Structuregenerated

The verse contains three main clauses, with the first clause being the finite verb נָתַתִּי, I will give, which governs the rest of the sentence. The subsequent clauses describe the results of this giving: the land yielding produce and the trees bearing fruit.

The structure emphasizes the cause-and-effect relationship between God's provision of rain and the resulting agricultural abundance, illustrating how the blessings are interconnected.


Septuagint Backgroundgenerated

The Septuagint translates נָתַן as δώσω (dōsō), meaning 'I will give'. This choice aligns closely with the Hebrew meaning, maintaining the focus on God's action of providing.

For יְבוּלָ֔הּ, the LXX does not provide a direct equivalent, which may suggest a broader interpretation of the agricultural yield rather than a specific term for produce.


In plain words — the whole versegenerated

Leviticus 26:4 promises that if the Israelites obey God, He will provide rain at the right times, leading to fruitful crops and trees. This reflects God's care for their needs and the blessings that come from following His commands.

(4) Then I will give you rain in due season.—Better, then I will give you your rains in due season, that is, the former and latter rains (Deuteronomy 11:14). In Palestine the proper season for the early rain is from about the middle of October until December, thus preparing the ground for receiving the seed, whilst that of the latter or vernal rain is in the months of March and April, just before the harvest. Thus, also, in the covenant which God is to make with His people, a similar promise is made, “I will cause the showers to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing” (Ezekiel 34:26).

אֶ֫רֶץ (erets) is a feminine noun meaning 'earth' or 'land.' It encompasses various meanings, including the whole earth, specific territories like Canaan, and even inhabitants of the land. It can refer to soil, ground, or regions, and is used in phrases related to distance and the living. There is a note on the plural form אֲרָצוֹת, which mainly appears in later texts to denote multiple lands.

ov:

(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man.

(Heb. sadeh), a cultivated field, but unenclosed. It is applied to any cultivated ground or pasture (Gen. 29:2; 31:4; 34:7), or tillage (Gen. 37:7; 47:24). It is also applied to woodland (Ps. 132:6) or mountain top (Judg. 9:32, 36; 2 Sam. 1:21). It denotes sometimes a cultivated region as opposed to the wilderness (Gen. 33:19; 36:35). Unwalled villages or scattered houses are spoken of as “in the fields” (Deut. 28:3, 16; Lev. 25:31;

The Hebrew sadeh is applied to any cultivated ground, and in some instances in marked opposition to the neighboring wilderness. On the other hand the sadeh is frequently contrasted with what is enclosed, whether a vineyard, a garden or a walled town. In many passages the term implies what is remote from a house, (Genesis 4:8; 24:63; 22:25) or settled habitation, as in the case of Esau. (Genesis 25:27) The separate plots of ground were marked off by stones, which might easily be removed, (19:14; 27:17) cf.
