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, bless you, and increase the number of your descendants. He will bless you with children. He will bless your land with produce: grain, new wine, and olive oil. He will bless your herds with calves, and your flocks with lambs and kids. This will all happen in the land the LORD will give you, as he swore to your ancestors.
14 You will be blessed more than any other people. Your men and women will be able to have children, and your animals will be able to have offspring.
15 The LORD will keep you from having any kind of illness. He will not strike you with any of the terrible diseases you experienced in Egypt. Instead, he will strike all those who hate you.
16 You must destroy all the people the LORD your God hands over to you. Have no pity on them, and never worship their gods, because they will be a trap for you.
17 You may say to yourselves, "These nations outnumber us. How can we force them out?"
