‏ Leviticus 26:9

v. 9: God will bless the people with many children and growth, fulfilling His promise to Abraham about his descendants being as numerous as dust. This also points to the gospel promise that believers will bear much fruit (Leviticus 26:9; John 15:16 a).

God promises to look kindly on His people. If they faithfully follow Him, He will not reject them. This shows God's deep care and mercy (Leviticus 26:9; Leviticus 26:11 b; Hebrews 10:38 c).

God will establish His covenant with Israel. If they obey, He will be their God, and they will be His people. This covenant is grounded in their deliverance from Egypt, where God broke their slavery and made them upright. This freedom allows them to serve God without fear and to live rightly. When Israel rejected Christ, their burden became heavier than slavery (Leviticus 26:13; Romans 11:10 d).
