Memory and Forgetfulness are central to the success or failure of the people of God. Responsibility falls on Israel to live in the present, counting themselves as being the generation who departed Egypt and received the Torah at Sinai. Theologically the past is the present! And this will prevent future success turning into arrogance and rejection from the Land of Inheritance. The Good Land before them is bountiful in agriculture, listed as the 7 species. When the people have eaten and are satisfied, they are instructed to bless the Lord, thus forming the tradition of saying grace after meals. During the 2nd Temple Period, blessings were added before and after meal occasions. The Brachot for bread and wine existed a generation prior to Jesus.
