‏ Deuteronomy 8:9

8:9  a Iron was not widely used in this period of the Bronze Age because the process of smelting and working it was known to only a few cultures (see 1 Sam 13:19-21  b). The time would come when Israel would exploit this vastly superior metal (see Josh 17:16-18  c; 1 Kgs 6:7  d; 2 Kgs 6:5  e; 1 Chr 22:3  f).
