A Blessing on the Storehouse Deuteronomy 28:8 The storing of the grain is the last of the processes of harvest. We may therefore take the blessing of God upon the housed and winnowed corn as including His blessing upon all previous stages of growth or ingathering. I. The Sowing Time This is where industry comes in, and the gift of God is seen also to be His reward and blessing upon human diligence. The preparation of the soil and the choice of the seed application to human life. II. The... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 28:1-68

MOSES’ FAREWELL SPEECHESDeuteronomy 4:1-40, Deuteronomy 27:1-26; Deuteronomy 28:1-68; Deuteronomy 29:1-29; Deuteronomy 30:1-20.WITH the twenty-sixth chapter the entirely homogeneous central portion of the Book of Deuteronomy ends, and it concludes it most worthily. It prescribes two ceremonies which are meant to give solemn expression to the feeling of thankfulness which the love of God, manifested in so many laws and precepts, covering the commonest details of life, should have made the... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Deuteronomy 28:1-68

24. The Blessing and the Curse CHAPTER 28 1. The blessing promised (Deuteronomy 28:1-14 ) 2. The curse announced (Deuteronomy 28:15-68 ) This is one of the most solemn chapters in the Pentateuch. Orthodox Hebrews read in their synagogues each year through the entire five books of Moses. When they read this chapter, the Rabbi reads in a subdued voice. And well may they read it softly and ponder over it, for here is prewritten the sad and sorrowful history of that wonderful nation. Here... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 28:1-68

FROM MOUNT GERIZIM -- BLESSINGS (vs.1-14) Though Chapter 28 does not say that these blessings were pronounced from Mount Gerizim, yet Chapter 27:12 indicates this. But the blessings were prefaced; by the conditions of verse 1. They would be effective only if Israel diligently obeyed the voice of the Lord, observing carefully all His commandments. If so, God would set them high above all nations, and all the blessings that follow would come upon them (v.2). They would be blessed in the city... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 28:1-68

PROPHECY OF ISRAEL ’S FUTURE As we approach the conclusion of this book we come to its most important part from a prophetic point of view indeed the present lesson contains (chap. 28) a foreview of Israel’s history to the end of the present age, in some respects unparalleled in the Bible, although touched upon in Leviticus (Deut. 26:26), as we saw. STONES FOR THE LAW AND STONE FOR AN ALTAR (Deuteronomy 27:1-8 ) What should they do when they crossed the Jordan (Deuteronomy 27:2 )? How... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Deuteronomy 28:45-68

I desired the Reader to remark with me in the opening of this Chapter, that there should seem to be somewhat prophetical in its contents. And if he compares what is here said, with the history of the Jewish nation, in their Babylonish captivity, he will discover strong leading particulars in proof of that idea. And if he carries on his enquiries to the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans, after the return of the LORD JESUS to glory, and to the dispersion of the Jews, even to the present... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 28:49

Swiftly. The Chaldeans are designated in the same manner, Jeremias v. 5., and Ezechiel xvii. 3, 12. The Romans also carried an eagle, as their chief standard, and the rapidity of their conquests astonished all the world. read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 28:45-68

45-68 If God inflicts vengeance, what miseries his curse can bring upon mankind, even in this present world! Yet these are but the beginning of sorrows to those under the curse of God. What then will be the misery of that world where their worm dieth not, and their fire is not quenched! Observe what is here said of the wrath of God, which should come and remain upon the Israelites for their sins. It is amazing to think that a people so long the favourites of Heaven, should be so cast off; and... read more

The Curses of Disobedience v. 15. But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the Lord, thy God, to observe to do all His commandments and His statutes which I command thee this day, that all these curses, namely, those enumerated in the second part of the Chapter, shall come upon thee and overtake thee, like the victorious enemies seeking to take as many captives as possible. v. 16. Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the field. v. 17.... read more
