📚 Historical Context

Moses was speaking to the Israelites before they entered the Promised Land, warning them about what would happen when they became prosperous. This was part of a larger speech about remembering God during times of abundance. The Israelites were transitioning from 40 years of wilderness wandering, where they depended entirely on God's daily provision, to settling in a fertile land where they could accumulate wealth.
