Deuteronomy 11:12

Careth for; literally, searcheth or inquireth after , i . e . thinks about and cares for ( LXX ; ἐπισκοπεῖται , oversees ; cf. Job 3:4 ; Psalms 142:4 ; Jeremiah 30:17 ; Ezekiel 34:8 ; Isaiah 62:12 ). The eyes of the Lord thy God ; i . e . his special watchful providence (cf. Psalms 33:18 ; Psalms 34:15 ; Ezekiel 4:5 ). It was a land on which Jehovah's regard was continually fixed, over which he watched with unceasing care, and which was sustained by his bounty; a land, therefore, wholly dependent on him, and so a fitting place for a people also wholly dependent on him, who owed to his grace all that they were and had.
