Your clothing grew not old upon you, neither did your foot swell, these forty years.
All Commentaries on Deuteronomy 8:4 Go To Deuteronomy 8
Ephrem The Syrian
AD 373
Nourish your soul with the fear of God, and God will nourish [your] body. Do these things, so that what you yourself are unable [to procure] may be given you by God. Take note of this, if God does not give the rain and the wind, it avails you naught, even if you are anxious. Obey God, therefore, and creation will obey your needs. If God nourished Israel for forty years in the desert, while they were murmuring and disbelieving, and effortlessly preserved their sandals and clothing, how much more so in the case of believers? Commentary on Tatian’s Diatesserona.
