Deuteronomy 28:60 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 28:60

Moreover, he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt,
&c.] All that in a way of judgment were brought upon the Egyptians for refusing to let Israel go; or all such diseases as were peculiar to them, and common among them, as the leprosy, the itch, ulcers

which thou wast afraid of;
when living among them, lest they should catch them of them, or they should be inflicted on them by the hand of God:

and they shall cleave unto thee;
not only should come upon them, but continue with them; they should not easily get rid of them, or be cured of them.

Deuteronomy 28:60 In-Context

58 Be careful to obey everything in these teachings that are written in this book. You must respect the glorious and wonderful name of the Lord your God,
59 or the Lord will give terrible diseases to you and your descendants. You will have long and serious diseases, and long and miserable sicknesses.
60 He will give you all the diseases of Egypt that you dread, and the diseases will stay with you.
61 The Lord will also give you every disease and sickness not written in this Book of the Teachings, until you are destroyed.
62 You people may have outnumbered the stars, but only a few of you will be left, because you did not obey the Lord your God.
