Deuteronomio 27:13 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 27:13

And these shall stand upon Mount Ebal curse
Which was dry and rocky, barren and fruitful, and like the earth, that bears briers and thorns, is rejected and nigh unto cursing, and so a proper place to curse, and a fit emblem of those to be cursed; see ( Hebrews 6:8 ) ;

Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali;
four of these appointed for cursing were the children of the handmaids, Gad, Asher, Dan, and Naphtali; and since two were wanting, as Aben Ezra observes, and the sons of Leah were many, the oldest and the youngest were taken; Reuben, who had defiled his father's bed, and exposed himself to the curse of the law, and Zebulun, the last and youngest of Leah's sons; see ( Galatians 3:10 ) ( Galatians 4:24 Galatians 4:30 ) .

Deuteronomio 27:13 In-Context

11 In quello stesso giorno Mosè diede pure quest’ordine al popolo:

12 "Quando avrete passato il Giordano, ecco quelli che staranno sul monte Gherizim per benedire il popolo: Simeone, Levi, Giuda, Issacar, Giuseppe e Beniamino;

13 ed ecco quelli che staranno sul monte Ebal, per pronunziare la maledizione: Ruben, Gad, Ascer, Zabulon, Dan e Neftali.

14 I Leviti parleranno e diranno ad alta voce a tutti gli uomini d’Israele:

15 Maledetto l’uomo che fa un’immagine scolpita o di getto, cosa abominevole per l’Eterno, opera di mano d’artefice, e la pone in luogo occulto! E tutto il popolo risponderà e dirà: Amen.
