Hi,
"The material rewards mentioned in the words of this
covenant could not have included any spiritual promises, for these promises
included the entire nation. Bountiful rain, the blessing of the crops, victory
over foes and other items mentioned here include the entire nation… But spiritual
rewards are only for each Israelite individually. Regarding material
benefits, the world or the city or the nation is judged with its majority… "
(Commentary of Don Isaac Abarbanel to Vayikra 26:1)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
