Vayikra 26:21 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 26:21

And if ye walk contrary unto me
To his mind and will, to his laws, commands, and ordinances, showing no regard unto them by a walk and conversation agreeably to them, but neglecting and breaking them continually; or by chance, as the Targum of Jonathan, not with any intention and design to obey the Lord, and to honour and glorify him, but in a careless and indifferent manner, having no regard to the law of God, only now and then, as it happens, act according to it, but having no concern for the honour and glory of God: and will not hearken unto me;
to his voice in his laws and his precepts, or by his prophets, exhorting them to obedience to them: I will bring seven times more plagues upon you, according to your
sins;
greater and sorer punishments still, and these more frequently repeated, and in proportion to their transgressions of his righteous laws.
