'But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.' 'Jeshurun' (yeshurun — the upright one) is an ironic honorific for Israel, used to heighten the paradox: the people designed for uprightness become fat and rebellious in prosperity. The verse encodes the theological danger of material blessing without continuing gratitude — wealth becoming the occasion for forgetting the Rock who provided it. Hosea 13:6 ('according to their pasture, so were they filled; they were filled, and their heart was exalted; therefore have they forgotten me') and Luke 12:16-21's Rich Fool articulate the same tragic pattern.
