Deuteronômio 28:40

40 Terás oliveiras em todos os teus termos, porém não te ungirás com azeite; porque a azeitona te cairá da oliveira.

Deuteronômio 28:40 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 28:40

Thou shalt have olive trees throughout thy coasts
In the several parts of the land of Canaan, which is therefore called a land of olive oil, ( Deuteronomy 8:8 ) ;

but thou shalt not anoint [thyself] with the oil;
nor any other relations, friends, guests, as was usual at entertainments; see ( Psalms 23:5 ) ( Luke 7:38 Luke 7:46 ) ; for the phrase "thyself" is not in the text. The reason why they should not anoint is, because they would have no oil to anoint with:

for thine olive shall cast [his fruit];
before it is ripe, by one means or another, as by winds, or blasting and mildew; see ( Amos 4:9 ) ( Habakkuk 3:17 ) .

Deuteronômio 28:40 In-Context

38 Levarás muita semente para o teu campo, porem colherás pouco; porque o gafanhoto a consumirá.

39 Plantarás vinhas, e as cultivarás, porém não lhes beberás o vinho, nem colherás as uvas; porque o bicho as devorará.

40 Terás oliveiras em todos os teus termos, porém não te ungirás com azeite; porque a azeitona te cairá da oliveira.

41 Filhos e filhas gerarás, porém não te pertencerão; porque irão em cativeiro.

42 Todo o teu arvoredo e o fruto do teu solo consumi-los-á o gafanhoto.
