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 He will love you and bless you and multiply you. He will bless the fruit of your womb and the produce of your land—your grain, new wine, and oil, the young of your herds and the lambs of your flocks—in the land that He swore to your fathers to give you.
14 You will be blessed above all peoples; among you there will be no barren man or woman or livestock.
15 And the LORD will remove from you all sickness. He will not lay upon you any of the terrible diseases you knew in Egypt, but He will inflict them on all who hate you.
16 You must destroy all the peoples the LORD your God will deliver to you. Do not look on them with pity. Do not worship their gods, for that will be a snare to you.
17 You may say in your heart, “These nations are greater than we are; how can we drive them out?”
