Deuteronomio 28:49 LBLA

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

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Deuteronomy 28:47-68

the Bitter Fruits of Disobeying God Deuteronomy 28:47-68 These predictions against the Hebrew people were partially fulfilled in earlier invasions, as for instance, those of Nebuchadnezzar and his generals; but it is to the Roman conquest of Judea that we must look for complete fulfillment. One only needs to compare these words with the narrative of Josephus to see the exact accomplishment which took place during the wars of Vespasian and Titus. The Jews themselves admit this.

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 28:1-68

We now come to the commencement of the third discourse of Moses. It was pre-eminently the uttering of solemn warnings in which he laid before the people the results of disobedience and rebellion. He spoke first, however, of the blessings which would follow obedience. They were to have national pre-eminence. Temporal blessings of all kinds would abound. They were to have victory over their enemies in time of war. The purpose of their King, Jehovah, it was plainly declared, was to fill them with... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 28:15-68

The Cursings That Will Result If They Are Not Faithful To The Covenant (Deuteronomy 28:15-68 ). But once they wander outside the sphere of the covenant only cursings can await them. They will have put themselves in the same place as that already taken by those whom they had cursed in Deuteronomy 27:15-26. Those examples were but samples of a wider Law, a Law which they would now have broken. Thus they have by their ‘Amen’ themselves acknowledged that it will be right for Yahweh to curse them.... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 28:49-58

Details of the Sixth Sixfold Curse (Deuteronomy 28:49-58 ). The curses now go deeper while repeating some of what has gone before. They had been engaged in much siege warfare in their defeat of Sihon and Og, and the capture of their great cities. They would remember the conditions when they had had to starve people out, and the treatment that they had dispensed. Now they learn that these thing would come back on them if they failed in obedience to the covenant. Deuteronomy 28:49-50 ‘ Yahweh... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Deuteronomy 28:49

As the eagle flieth, Heb. as the eagle flies, i.e. not only swiftly, as is expressed in our translation, for which the Babylonian is noted and compared to an eagle, Jeremiah 4:13; Ezekiel 17:3; Daniel 7:4; but also fiercely and greedily, as the eagle to its prey; also strongly and irresistibly. Possibly this may be understood of the Romans, who did come from far, from the end of the earth, more truly and literally than the Chaldeans, whose country was not far from Judea, and this may allude to... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Deuteronomy 28:1-68

CRITICAL NOTES.—Moses now enlarges and gives the blessings and curses in detail (cf. Exodus 23:20-23 and Leviticus 26:0.) The blessings are declared in fourteen verses; the curses require nearly four times as many. Thus here again the curse is the more conspicuous feature in the law Speak. Com. Obedience the condition of blessing and this is repeated at beginning (Deuteronomy 28:2) middle (29) and close (Deuteronomy 28:13-14) in positive and energetic form.Deuteronomy 28:1-6. Blessings actual... read more
