申命記 32:23-25 JCB

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:19-25

The method of this song follows the method of the predictions in the foregoing chapter, and therefore, after the revolt of Israel from God, described in the Deut. 32:15, 16, here follow immediately the resolves of divine Justice concerning them; we deceive ourselves if we think that God will be thus mocked by a foolish faithless people, that play fast and loose with him. I. He had delighted in them, but now he would reject them with detestation and disdain, Deut. 32:19. When the Lord saw their... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:23

I will heap mischief upon them ,.... One calamity upon another, which are after particularly mentioned: I will spewed mine arrows upon them ; God is here represented as an enemy to the Jews, as having bent his bow against them like an enemy, Lamentations 2:4 ; and as having a quiver, and that full of arrows, and as determined to draw out and spend everyone of them, in taking vengeance upon them; which arrows are his four sore judgments mentioned Ezekiel 14:21 ; and expressed in ... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:24

They shall be burnt with hunger ,.... This is the arrow of famine, Ezekiel 5:16 ; the force of which is such that it makes the skin black as if burnt, Lamentations 5:10 ; Onkelos paraphrases it,"inflated or swelled with famine,'which is a phrase Josephus F2 απο της ενδειας πεφυσημενοι , de Bello Jud. l. 5. c. 23. sect. 4. makes use of in describing the famine at the siege of Jerusalem. Jarchi observes, that one of their writers F3 R. Moses Hadarsan. interprets the words... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:25

The sword without ,.... Either without the city, the sword of the Roman army besieging it, which destroyed all that came out or attempted to go in; or in the streets of the city, the sword of the seditious, which destroyed multitudes among themselves: and terror within ; within the city, on account of the sword of the Romans, and the close siege they made of it; and on account of the famine and pestilence which raged in it, and the cruelty of the seditious persons among themselves; all... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 32:23

I will spend mine arrows upon them - The judgments of God in general are termed the arrows of God, Job 6:4 ; Psalm 38:2 , Psalm 38:3 ; Psalm 91:5 ; see also Ezekiel 5:16 ; Jeremiah 50:14 ; 2 Samuel 22:14 , 2 Samuel 22:15 . In this and the following verses, to the 28th inclusive, ( Deuteronomy 32:23-28 ;), God threatens this people with every species of calamity that could possibly fall upon man. How strange it is that, having this law continually in their hands, they should... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 32:24

They shall be burnt with hunger - Their land shall be cursed, and famine shall prevail. This is one of the arrows. Burning heat - No showers to cool the atmosphere; or rather boils, blains, and pestilential fevers; this was a second. Bitter destruction - The plague; this was a third. Teeth of beasts - with the poison of serpents - The beast of the field should multiply upon and destroy them; this was a fourth: and poisonous serpents, infesting all their steps, and whose mortal... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 32:24

Verse 24 24.They shall be burnt with hunger. He now descends to some particular modes of punishment, not, indeed, to enumerate them all, but only to adduce such specimens of them as to inspire the people with greater terror, inasmuch as mere generalities would not have sufficiently affected them. He mentions three especial scourges, pestilence, famine, and the sword, on which the prophets constantly dilate, when their object was to apply the Law to the actual use of the people, from whence it... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:15-25

Sowing and reaping. The connection between sin and suffering is natural, organic, and universal. Suffering, in some form, is the proper development of sin. Like the plants of nature, sin has its seed within itself. I. WE HAVE A CASE OF AGGRAVATED SIN . 1. It was a wanton abuse of special cloudiness . The splendid gifts of providence, which ought to have bound them by golden ties of obligation to God, were erected into barriers to shut out God from them. An inner... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:19-25

An unfaithful people provoked to jealousy by God. This paragraph is the antithesis of the preceding one. In form the expressions are archaic. The principles underlying these ancient forms of expression are for all the ages. In fact, there are few of the Old Testament passages which are more pointedly referred to in the New Testament; and none, the principles of which are more frequently reproduced. The various clauses are seriatim explained in the Exposition. We propose but to develop... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:19-27

A God provoked. Consider here— I. THE REALITY OF WRATH IN GOD . Let it not be minimized or explained away. "Instead of being shocked at the thought that God is wrathful, we should rather ask, With whom? and For what? A God without wrath, and a God who is wrathful on other accounts than for sin, is not a God, but an idol" (Hengstenberg). It is only, as this writer observes, when "man himself is not displeased with sin, when it assumes to him the appearance of a... read more
