Deuteronomy 28:59-62

Listen to Deuteronomy 28:59-62
59 then the Lord will overwhelm both you and your offspring with severe and lasting afflictions and grievous and lasting maladies.
60 He will bring back upon you all the diseases of Egypt, of which you were in dread, and they shall cling to you.
61 Every other malady and affliction, even though not recorded in the book of this law, the Lord will inflict on you until you are destroyed.
62 Although once you were as numerous as the stars in heaven, you shall be left few in number, because you did not obey the Lord your God.

Deuteronomy 28:59-62 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO DEUTERONOMY 28

In this chapter Moses enlarges on the blessings and the curses which belong, the one to the doers, the other to the transgressors of the law; the blessings, De 28:1-14; the curses, some of which concern individual persons, others the whole nation and body of people, and that both under the former and present dispensations, and which had their fulfilment in their former captivities, and more especially in their present dispersion, De 28:15-68.
