Leviticus 26:18 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 26:18

And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me
If such corrections by diseases of body, and by giving them up into the hands of their enemies, should be ineffectual to reform them, and bring them to obedience to the statutes and commandments of God, but should continue in their disobedience to him, and rebellion against him: then I will punish you seven times more for your sins;
that is, abundantly more, with sorer punishments, and these more frequently repeated.

Leviticus 26:18 In-Context

16 then this is what I will do to you: I will bring upon you sudden terror, wasting disease, and fever that will destroy your sight and drain your life. You will sow your seed in vain, because your enemies will eat it.

17 And I will set My face against you, so that you will be defeated by your enemies. Those who hate you will rule over you, and you will flee when no one pursues you.

18 And if after all this you will not obey Me, I will proceed to punish you sevenfold for your sins.

19 I will break down your stubborn pride and make your sky like iron and your land like bronze,

20 and your strength will be spent in vain. For your land will not yield its produce, and the trees of the land will not bear their fruit.
