Because Moab had not experienced the troublesome pouring out and stirring similar to that necessary to develop good wine, the nation did not change. Moab was at ease and settled in prosperity and because of this did not develop and mature properly spiritually.
Sapagkat hindi pa nararanasan ng Moab ang pagkatas at pag-giyagis tulad ng kailangan upang makagawa ng masarap ng alak, hindi nagbago ang bansa. Prente lamang ang Moab at nasiyahan sa kasaganaan at dahil dito ay hindi lumagong espirituwal.
