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.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
God promises to provide rain in its season, which will lead to the land producing crops and trees bearing fruit.
Rain is crucial for agriculture, and without it, the land cannot yield its produce, which is essential for the people's sustenance.
This phrase indicates that God's provision is timely and appropriate, ensuring that the rains come when they are most needed for growth.
This verse illustrates that obedience to God's commandments results in tangible blessings, such as agricultural abundance and security.

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).

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.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.
I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you. 1 Corinthians 11:1.
For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts. Joshua 11:1.
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed.

The whole disposing thereof is of the Lord. Proverbs 16:1.
Go, inquire of the Lord for me. 2 Chronicles 34:2.
That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…

Field
(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. Job 24:2; Prov 22:28; 23:10 The absence of fences rendered the fields liable to damage from straying cattle, (Exodus…
