Matthew Poole's Concise Commentary

Deuteronomy 1:25

The fruit; grapes, pomegranates, and figs, Numbers 13:23. It is a good land; which acknowledgment, coming from its enemies, should have prevailed with you to go in, more than their discouraging words should have beat you off, because the Lord who had given you this land, was unquestionably able to settle you in it in spite of all opposition.
