Deuteronomy 8:1-3 In-Context

　　1 Be careful to follow every command I am giving you today, so that you may live and increase and may enter and possess the land the Lord promised on oath to your ancestors.

　　2 Remember how the Lord your God led you all the way in the wilderness these forty years, to humble and test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands.

　　3 He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your ancestors had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord.

　　4 Your clothes did not wear out and your feet did not swell during these forty years.

　　5 Know then in your heart that as a man disciplines his son, so the Lord your God disciplines you.
