God's Complete Provision
Commentators explain that the 'basket' and 'kneading-trough' (or 'store') symbolize God's comprehensive provision. This blessing covers both immediate, daily needs (the basket for current use) and future supplies (the store or trough for what is laid up). It's a promise that God's people will lack nothing, having sufficiency for both today and tomorrow.
