Salmos 78:50

50 Abriu caminho para a sua ira;não os poupou da morte,mas os entregou à peste.

Salmos 78:50 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 78:50

He made a way to his anger
Or, "for" it, so that nothing could obstruct it, or hinder the execution of it; or "he weighed a path for his anger" ^F13; he weighed it in the balance of justice, and proportioned his anger to their crimes, and punished them according to their just deserts:

he spared not their soul from death, but gave their life over to the
pestilence;
which some understand of their cattle, and of the murrain that came upon them, by which they were destroyed, and which was the fifth plague of Egypt, ( Exodus 9:3 ) , so the Targum,

``their beasts he delivered unto death;''

but Aben Ezra interprets it of the slaughter of the firstborn, expressed in the following verse; and so others.

Salmos 78:50 In-Context

48 quando entregou o gado deles ao granizo,os seus rebanhos aos raios;

49 quando os atingiu com a sua ira ardente,com furor, indignação e hostilidade,com muitos anjos destruidores.

50 Abriu caminho para a sua ira;não os poupou da morte,mas os entregou à peste.

51 Matou todos os primogênitos do Egito,as primícias do vigor varonil das tendas de Cam.

52 Mas tirou o seu povo como ovelhase o conduziu como a um rebanho pelo deserto.
