Deuteronomy 28:51 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 28:51

And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle
Larger and lesser, oxen and sheep, as their calves and lambs, and kids of the goat:

and the fruit of thy land;
their wheat, barley, figs, grapes, pomegranates, olives, and dates:

until thou be destroyed;
the land of Judea, and all the increase of it: this being before said, ( Deuteronomy 28:31 Deuteronomy 28:33 ) ; and here repeated, shows that the same should be fulfilled at different times, as by the Chaldeans, so by the Romans; whose nation, or army, with their general at the head of them, may be more especially here intended by "he", that should eat up their fruit until utter destruction was brought upon them:

which [also] shall not leave thee [either] corn, wine, or oil, [or]
the increase of thy kine, or flocks of thy sheep, until he have
destroyed thee;
all being consumed by the Roman army. There is a promise and prophecy, that though this would be the case, as it has been, there shall be a time when it shall be so no more; see ( Isaiah 62:8 Isaiah 62:9 ) .

Deuteronomy 28:51 In-Context

49 The LORD will bring a nation against you from far away, from the ends of the earth, like an eagle swooping down, a nation whose language you will not understand,

50 a fierce-looking nation without respect for the old or pity for the young.

51 They will devour the young of your livestock and the crops of your land until you are destroyed. They will leave you no grain, new wine or olive oil, nor any calves of your herds or lambs of your flocks until you are ruined.

52 They will lay siege to all the cities throughout your land until the high fortified walls in which you trust fall down. They will besiege all the cities throughout the land the LORD your God is giving you.

53 Because of the suffering your enemy will inflict on you during the siege, you will eat the fruit of the womb, the flesh of the sons and daughters the LORD your God has given you.
