Leviticus 26:32 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 26:32

And I will bring the land into desolation
The whole country of Judea, cities, towns, villages, fields, vineyards through the ravage and plunder of the enemy; and they being driven out of it, and carried captive from it, and so the land left untilled, and become barren and unfruitful: and your enemies which dwell therein;
having destroyed them, or cast them out, and sent them into other countries, and took possession of theirs in their room; shall be astonished at it;
at the desolation of the land, that such a fruitful country, a land flowing with milk and honey, should be turned into barrenness, for the wickedness of its inhabitants, and shall be amazed at the judgments of God upon them and that.

Leviticus 26:32 In-Context

30 And I will destroy your high places and cut down your images and cast your carcasses upon the carcasses of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you.
31 And I will make your cities waste and bring your sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the aroma of your suave incense.
32 And I will bring the land into desolation, and your enemies who dwell therein shall be astonished at it.
33 And I will scatter you among the Gentiles and will draw out a sword after you, and your land shall be desolate and your cities waste.
34 Then shall the land rest for her sabbaths all the days that it lies desolate, while you are in your enemies’ land; even then shall the land rest and enjoy her sabbaths.
