Deuteronomio 8:19 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 8:19

And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the Lord thy God,
&c.] Either the mercies they received from him, not acknowledging they came from him, but ascribing them to themselves; or their duty to him, to whom they were so greatly obliged: and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them; which would be to forget him indeed, forsaking his worship, and giving homage and adoration to idols, which is what is intended by these expressions:

I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish;
by one judgment and calamity or another, as the sword, famine, pestilence, and captivity; there being nothing more provoking to God than idolatry, which so much detracts from his honour and glory: and which besides, in such a people, so highly favoured of God, it argued the basest ingratitude.

Deuteronomio 8:19 In-Context

17 e non dica nel cuor tuo: La mia possanza, e la forza della mia mano mi ha acquistate queste ricchezze.
18 Anzi ricordati del Signore Iddio tuo; ch’egli è quel che ti dà la forza, per portarti valorosamente; per confermare il suo patto ch’egli ha giurato a’ tuoi padri, come oggi appare.
19 Ma, se pur tu dimentichi il Signore Iddio tuo, e vai dietro ad altri dii, e servi loro, e li adori; io vi protesto oggi che del tutto voi perirete.
20 Come saran perite le nazioni che il Signore fa perire d’innanzi a voi, così perirete; perciocchè non avrete ubbidito alla voce del Signore Iddio vostro.
