Matthew Poole and continuators on Deuteronomy 26:15

15 Look down from thy holy habitation, from heaven, and bless thy people Israel, and the land which thou hast given us, as thou swarest unto our fathers, a land that floweth with milk and honey.

After that solemn profession of their obedience to Gods commands, they are taught to pray for Gods blessing upon their land, whereby they are instructed how vain and ineffectual the prayers of unrighteous o[illegible: 1+ letters] disobedient persons are.
