Deu 11:16 | MHM | STEP | vv. 16-17 : Moses warns the people that turning away from God to worship idols will bring disaster ( v. 16, 17 ). If their hearts are deceived and they serve other gods, it will provoke God's anger. As a result, rain will stop, the land will not produce crops, and they will quickly perish from the good land God is giving them. The better the land, the greater the loss if they fall into disobedience. The goodness of the land cannot protect them if they turn away from God.
