Êxodo 23:26 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 23:26

There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren in the
land
There shall be no abortions or miscarriages, nor sterility or barrenness, either among the Israelites, or their cattle of every kind, so that there should be a great increase, both of men and beasts:

the number of thy days I will fulfil;
which was fixed for each of them, in his eternal purposes and decrees; or what, according to the temperament of their bodies and the course of nature, which, humanly speaking, it might be supposed they would arrive unto; or generally the common term of human life, which, in the days of Moses, was threescore years and ten, or fourscore, see ( Job 14:5 ) ( Ecclesiastes 3:2 ) ( Psalms 90:10 ) , it may be considered whether any respect is had to the time of their continuance in the land of Canaan, the term of which was fixed in the divine mind, or the fulness of time in which the Messiah was to come.

Êxodo 23:26 In-Context

24 Não te inclinarás diante dos seus deuses, nem os servirás, nem farás conforme as suas obras; Antes os derrubarás totalmente, e quebrarás de todo as suas colunas.
25 Servireis, pois, ao Senhor vosso Deus, e ele abençoará o vosso pão e a vossa água; e eu tirarei do meio de vós as enfermidades.
26 Na tua terra não haverá mulher que aborte, nem estéril; o número dos teus dias completarei.
27 Enviarei o meu terror adiante de ti, pondo em confusão todo povo em cujas terras entrares, e farei que todos os teus inimigos te voltem as costas.
28 Também enviarei na tua frente vespas, que expulsarão de diante de ti os heveus, os cananeus e os heteus.
