Deuteronomy 7:15 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 7:15

And will take away from thee all sickness
Bodily sickness and diseases, prevent the coming of them, or remove them when come:

and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt which thou knowest
upon thee;
meaning either the plagues that were inflicted upon them to oblige them to let the Israelites go, of which they had perfect knowledge; or else some noxious and nauseous diseases, which were common among, and peculiar to, the Egyptians, particularly what is called the botch of Egypt; see ( Exodus 15:26 ) , likewise the leprosy; (See Gill on Leviticus 13:2), (See Gill on Deuteronomy 28:27).

but will lay them upon all them that hate thee;
with which God sometimes punishes his and his people's enemies; see ( Judges 5:9 ) ( Revelation 16:10 Revelation 16:11 ) .

Deuteronomy 7:15 In-Context

13 And he will love thee and multiply thee, and will bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy vintage, thy oil, and thy herds, and the flocks of thy sheep upon the land, for which he swore to thy fathers that he would give it thee.

14 Blessed shalt thou be among all people. No one shall be barren among you of either sex, neither of men nor cattle.

15 The Lord will take away from thee all sickness: and the grievous infirmities of Egypt, which thou knowest, he will not bring upon thee, but upon thy enemies.

16 Thou shalt consume all the people, which the Lord thy God will deliver to thee. Thy eye shall not spare them, neither shalt thou serve their gods, lest they be thy ruin.

17 If thou say in thy heart: These nations are more than I, how shall I be able to destroy them?
