This period was marked by God's provision of manna (<a href="/exodus/16-35.htm">Exodus 16:35</a>), water from the rock (<a href="/exodus/17-6.htm">Exodus 17:6</a>), and the guidance of the pillar of cloud by day and fire by night (<a href="/exodus/13-21.htm">Exodus 13:21-22</a>). The wilderness journey is a testament to God's faithfulness and serves as a reminder of His ability to sustain His people in times of trial and scarcity. It also symbolizes the spiritual journey of believers, emphasizing reliance on God for sustenance and direction.<p><b>until you reached this place;</b><br>This phrase signifies the culmination of the Israelites' journey as they stand on the brink of entering the Promised Land. "This place" refers to the plains of Moab, across the Jordan River from Jericho, where Moses delivered his final speeches recorded in Deuteronomy. This location is significant as it represents the transition from a nomadic life to settling in a land promised to their ancestors. It underscores the fulfillment of God's promises and the importance of obedience and faithfulness to His covenant. The journey from Egypt to this point is a type of the Christian journey from sin to salvation, with the Promised Land symbolizing eternal life with God.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a></b><br>The leader of the Israelites, who is recounting God's deeds and faithfulness to the people as they prepare to enter the Promised Land.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_israelites.htm">The Israelites</a></b><br>The chosen people of God, who experienced His miraculous works and guidance during their journey from Egypt to the Promised Land.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_wilderness.htm">The Wilderness</a></b><br>The desert region where the Israelites wandered for 40 years, a place of testing, provision, and divine encounters.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_promised_land.htm">The Promised Land</a></b><br>The land of Canaan, which God promised to Abraham and his descendants, representing a place of rest and fulfillment of God's promises.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/g/god's_deeds.htm">God's Deeds</a></b><br>Refers to the miraculous acts and provisions God performed for the Israelites, such as manna, water from the rock, and guidance by the pillar of cloud and fire.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/r/remembering_god's_faithfulness.htm">Remembering God's Faithfulness</a></b><br>Reflect on past experiences where God has provided and guided you, strengthening your faith for current and future challenges.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/trusting_in_god's_provision.htm">Trusting in God's Provision</a></b><br>Just as God provided for the Israelites in the wilderness, trust that He will meet your needs in times of uncertainty and trial.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/l/learning_from_past_mistakes.htm">Learning from Past Mistakes</a></b><br>The Israelites' journey serves as a cautionary tale; learn from their mistakes by cultivating a heart of obedience and faith.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/the_journey_to_the_promised_land.htm">The Journey to the Promised Land</a></b><br>Understand that life's journey involves both trials and divine guidance, leading us to the ultimate fulfillment of God's promises.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/s/spiritual_growth_in_the_wilderness.htm">Spiritual Growth in the Wilderness</a></b><br>Embrace difficult seasons as opportunities for spiritual growth and deeper reliance on God.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_deuteronomy_11.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Deuteronomy 11</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/why_do_tribe_counts_in_numbers_2_differ.htm">Why do the tribe counts in Numbers 2 appear to conflict with certain census numbers elsewhere in the Old Testament?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/evidence_for_deut._11_2-7_events.htm">In Deuteronomy 11:2-7, where is the historical or archeological evidence for the miraculous events described in Egypt and the Red Sea?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/why_was_jesus_tempted_if_spirit-led.htm">How can Jesus be 'led by the Spirit' yet encounter direct temptation from the devil (Luke 4:1)?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what_is_the_bible's_date_of_writing.htm">What is the Bible's date of writing?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/deuteronomy/11.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 5.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">What he did unto yon in the wilderness.</span> The doings of God to the people in the wilderness comprehend the manifestations of his omnipotence, both in their guidance and protection, and in the punishment of those who transgressed. One instance of the latter is expressly referred to - the destruction of those who joined in the insurrection of Korah (cf. <a href="/numbers/16-31.htm">Numbers 16:31-33</a>). Moses does not mention Korah himself here, but only his accomplices Dathan and Abiram, probably, as Keil suggests, "from regard to his sons, who were not swallowed up by the earth along with their father, but had lived to perpetuate the family of Korah;" perhaps also because, though Korah was at the head of the insurrection, Dathan and Abiram were the more determined, audacious, and obdurate in their rebellion (cf. <a href="/numbers/16-12.htm">Numbers 16:12-15, 25, 26</a>), so that it came to be named from them. <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/deuteronomy/11-5.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">what</span><br /><span class="heb">וַאֲשֶׁ֥ר</span> <span class="translit">(wa·’ă·šer)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunctive waw | Pronoun - relative<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_834.htm">Strong's 834: </a> </span><span class="str2">Who, which, what, that, when, where, how, because, in order that</span><br /><br /><span class="word">He did</span><br /><span class="heb">עָשָׂ֛ה</span> <span class="translit">(‘ā·śāh)</span><br /><span class="parse">Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person masculine singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_6213.htm">Strong's 6213: </a> </span><span class="str2">To do, make</span><br /><br /><span class="word">for you</span><br /><span class="heb">לָכֶ֖ם</span> <span class="translit">(lā·ḵem)</span><br /><span class="parse">Preposition | second person masculine plural<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/.htm">Strong's Hebrew</a> </span><span class="str2"></span><br /><br /><span class="word">in the wilderness</span><br /><span class="heb">בַּמִּדְבָּ֑ר</span> <span class="translit">(bam·miḏ·bār)</span><br /><span class="parse">Preposition-b, Article | Noun - masculine singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_4057.htm">Strong's 4057: </a> </span><span class="str2">A pasture, a desert, speech</span><br /><br /><span class="word">until</span><br /><span class="heb">עַד־</span> <span class="translit">(‘aḏ-)</span><br /><span class="parse">Preposition<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_5704.htm">Strong's 5704: </a> </span><span class="str2">As far as, even to, up to, until, while</span><br /><br /><span class="word">you reached</span><br /><span class="heb">בֹּאֲכֶ֖ם</span> <span class="translit">(bō·’ă·ḵem)</span><br /><span class="parse">Verb - Qal - Infinitive construct | second person masculine plural<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_935.htm">Strong's 935: </a> </span><span class="str2">To come in, come, go in, go</span><br /><br /><span class="word">this</span><br /><span class="heb">הַזֶּֽה׃</span> <span class="translit">(haz·zeh)</span><br /><span class="parse">Article | Pronoun - masculine singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_2088.htm">Strong's 2088: </a> </span><span class="str2">This, that</span><br /><br /><span class="word">place;</span><br /><span class="heb">הַמָּק֥וֹם</span> <span class="translit">(ham·mā·qō·wm)</span><br /><span class="parse">Article | Noun - masculine singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_4725.htm">Strong's 4725: </a> </span><span class="str2">A standing, a spot, a condition</span><br /><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><div class="vheading">Links</div><a href="/niv/deuteronomy/11-5.htm">Deuteronomy 11:5 NIV</a><br /><a href="/nlt/deuteronomy/11-5.htm">Deuteronomy 11:5 NLT</a><br /><a href="/esv/deuteronomy/11-5.htm">Deuteronomy 11:5 ESV</a><br /><a href="/nasb/deuteronomy/11-5.htm">Deuteronomy 11:5 NASB</a><br /><a href="/kjv/deuteronomy/11-5.htm">Deuteronomy 11:5 KJV</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="//bibleapps.com/deuteronomy/11-5.htm">Deuteronomy 11:5 BibleApps.com</a><br /><a href="//bibliaparalela.com/deuteronomy/11-5.htm">Deuteronomy 11:5 Biblia Paralela</a><br /><a href="//holybible.com.cn/deuteronomy/11-5.htm">Deuteronomy 11:5 Chinese Bible</a><br /><a href="//saintebible.com/deuteronomy/11-5.htm">Deuteronomy 11:5 French Bible</a><br /><a href="/catholic/deuteronomy/11-5.htm">Deuteronomy 11:5 Catholic Bible</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/deuteronomy/11-5.htm">OT Law: Deuteronomy 11:5 And what he did to you (Deut.
