Deuteronomio 28:22 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 28:22

The Lord shall smite thee with a consumption
An emaciation of their bodies, either through famine or wasting diseases, whereby the fluids are washed off, and men are reduced to skin and bones:

and with a fever;
a hot burning disease, which dries up the radical moisture, consumes it, and so threatens with death; of which there are various sorts, and some very pestilential and mortal Jarchi and Aben Ezra interpret it of a fire in the face, by which they seem to mean what is called St. Anthony's fire:

and with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning;
either in the inward parts, as an inflammation of the lungs; or in the outward parts, as carbuncles, burning ulcers, and the like:

and with the sword;
in the margin it is, "with drought"; so Aben Ezra interprets the word, which seems better to suit with what it is in company with; and designs either drought in human bodies, occasioned by fevers, inflammations, and extreme burnings; or in the earth, through the force of the sun, and want of rain, which render the earth barren and unfruitful, and so cause a famine:

and with blasting and with mildew;
whereby the corn that is sown, and springs up, comes to nothing, being blasted by east winds, or turns pale and yellow by the mildew, and so withers away; the consequence of which is want of food, and so destruction and ruin; see ( Amos 4:9 ) ;

and they shall pursue thee until thou perish;
follow hard after them, and come so close one after another upon them, until they are utterly destroyed.

Deuteronomio 28:22 In-Context

20 El SEÑOR enviará contra ti la maldición, quebranto y asombro en todo cuanto pusieres mano e hicieres, hasta que seas destruido, y perezcas presto a causa de la maldad de tus obras, por las cuales me habrás dejado

21 El SEÑOR hará que se te pegue mortandad, hasta que te consuma de la tierra a la cual entras para heredarla

22 El SEÑOR te herirá de tisis, de fiebre, de ardor, de calor, de espada, y de calamidad repentina, y con añublo; y te perseguirán hasta que perezcas

23 Y tus cielos que están sobre tu cabeza, serán de bronce; y la tierra que está debajo de ti, de hierro

24 Dará el SEÑOR por lluvia a tu tierra polvo y ceniza; de los cielos descenderán sobre ti hasta que perezcas
