Deuteronomy 28:38-39

38 "You will carry much seed out to the field but gather little in, because locusts will devour it.
39 You will plant vineyards and dress them but neither drink the wine nor gather the grapes, because worms will eat them.

Deuteronomy 28:38-39 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.
