'Good' in the Bible
You replied to me that what I had said to you was good.
I thought this was a good idea, so I sent twelve men from among you, one from each tribe.
Then they took some of the produce of the land and carried it back down to us. They also brought a report to us, saying, "The land that the Lord our God is about to give us is good."
"Not a single person of this evil generation will see the good land that I promised to give to your ancestors!
Also, your infants, who you thought would die on the way, and your children, who as yet do not know good from bad, will go there; I will give them the land and they will possess it.
Let me please cross over to see the good land on the other side of the Jordan River -- this good hill country and the Lebanon!"
Go up to the top of Pisgah and take a good look to the west, north, south, and east, for you will not be allowed to cross the Jordan.
But the Lord became angry with me because of you and vowed that I would never cross the Jordan nor enter the good land that he is about to give you.
So I must die here in this land; I will not cross the Jordan. But you are going over and will possess that good land.
Do whatever is proper and good before the Lord so that it may go well with you and that you may enter and occupy the good land that he promised your ancestors,
For the Lord your God is bringing you to a good land, a land of brooks, springs, and fountains flowing forth in valleys and hills,
You will eat your fill and then praise the Lord your God because of the good land he has given you.
When you eat your fill, when you build and occupy good houses,
fed you in the desert with manna (which your ancestors had never before known) so that he might by humbling you test you and eventually bring good to you.
Understand, therefore, that it is not because of your righteousness that the Lord your God is about to give you this good land as a possession, for you are a stubborn people!
and to keep the Lord's commandments and statutes that I am giving you today for your own good?
Then the anger of the Lord will erupt against you and he will close up the sky so that it does not rain. The land will not yield its produce, and you will soon be removed from the good land that the Lord is about to give you.
Pay careful attention to all these things I am commanding you so that it may always go well with you and your children after you when you do what is good and right in the sight of the Lord your God.
You will celebrate all the good things that the Lord your God has given you and your family, along with the Levites and the resident foreigners among you.
The Lord will open for you his good treasure house, the heavens, to give you rain for the land in its season and to bless all you do; you will lend to many nations but you will not borrow from any.
This is what will happen: Just as the Lord delighted to do good for you and make you numerous, he will take delight in destroying and decimating you. You will be uprooted from the land you are about to possess.
