"The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil," wrote the apostle Paul. One would not think a group of recently emancipated slaves would need to hear such a message, yet as Moses looks forward to the conquest, he realizes that God is about to richly bless His people in a way they could not even imagine. With material wealth comes satisfaction and complacency, and most dangerously of all, a sense of personal achievement. Israel may be tempted to think all they had was of their own work and accomplishments, thus leading them to forget entirely about their God who had been the fountainhead of all they possessed.
