John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 26:40

Verse 40 40.If they shall confess their iniquity. Although Moses has been discoursing of very severe and cruel punishments, still he declares that even in the midst of this awful severity God is to be appeased if only the people should repent, notwithstanding that they may have stripped themselves of all hope of pardon by their long-continued sins. For he does not address sinners in general, but those who by their obstinacy and brutal impetuosity have come nearer and nearer to the vengeance of... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 26:43

Verse 43 43.The land also shall be left of them. He again refers to the punishment of banishment, which is equivalent to their being disinherited; and at the same time repeats that the worship of God could not be restored in the Holy Land, until it should be purified from their defilements; yet immediately afterwards He moderates this severity, inasmuch as, when He seemed to deal with them most rigorously, He still will not utterly cast them off. The verbs He uses (236) are in the past tense,... read more

PART V. CONCLUDING EXHORTATION . 1 . The blessings. which should result from obedience ( Leviticus 26:3-13 ). 2 . The curses which should follow disobedience ( Leviticus 26:14-39 ). 3 . The gracious treatment which would ensue on repentance ( Leviticus 26:40-45 ). Hitherto the Book of Leviticus has consisted of ceremonial and moral injunctions, with two historical passages interposed. In the present chapter it rises in its subject and its diction from legal... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 26:1-46

Temporal rewards and punishments. cf. Ecclesiastes 8:11 ; Isaiah 48:18 ; Matthew 5:44 , Matthew 5:45 ; and 1 Timothy 4:8 . There is in this chapter a distinct assertion of moral government exercised over Israel. If they obeyed God's Law, he would grant them great temporal blessing; if they disobeyed, he would send them sore chastisement; but if after disobedience they became penitent, he would remember their fathers and his covenant with them, and receive their penitent seed into... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 26:3-46

Promises and threatenings. In this chapter the prophet looks forward, and declares how God would deal with his people; which should be according to the way in which they should act. In 2 Chronicles 36:14-21 , the chronicler looks back, and shows how God had dealt with them; which had been according to the way in which they had acted. The promises and the threatenings are to the nation, not to individuals; and the prophetical assurance is that national obedience to God shall bring about... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 26:40-45

God's pardon will, even yet, as always, follow upon confession of sin and genuine repentance. They must recognize not only that they have sinned, but that their sufferings have been a punishment for those sins at God's hand. This will work in them humble acquiescence in God's doings, and then he will remember his covenant with Jacob, and also his covenant with Isaac, and also his covenant with Abraham, and for the sake of the covenant of their ancestors, he will not east them away, neither... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 26:40-45

Sorrow unto salvation. The chastisements of God, like the gospel of Jesus Christ, are either a savour of life unto life or of death unto death; they either make or mar; they may sanctify and save or they may leave the soul more bound in the bonds of sin than ever. It is only godly sorrow—sorrow regarded in a true light and treated in the way that God intended—that works repentance unto salvation; otherwise it works death ( 2 Corinthians 7:10 ). The right use of affliction is indicated in... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 26:40-46

Hope for Israel. The curses of this chapter have proved prophetic. So, may we infer, will the blessings prove. We may therefore hope to see the conversion of the Hebrews to Christ, their restoration to their ancient inheritance, and the sun of prosperity shining brightly upon them. I. THEY WILL CONFESS THEIR SIN . 1 . Their personal iniquity. 2 . The iniquity of their fathers. 3 . The justice of God in their punishment. II. THEN GOD WILL REMEMBER ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 26:40-46

The gracious invitation to repentance. The covenant may be restored. Even in the midst of the declarations of Divine sovereignty and government, long-suffering mercy meets "the earliest and faintest breathings of a broken and penitent spirit." I. Confirm by history (see Judges and Kings). The restoration from Babylon. All consummated in Messiah. II. The free grace of God is the foundation of hope; "I am the Lord their God;" "I will remember;" "for all that I will not cast them... read more
