Psalm 78:48 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 78:48

He gave up their cattle also to the hail
For the hail fell upon man and beast, as well as upon herbs and trees, ( Exodus 9:22 Exodus 9:25 ) ,

and their flocks to hot thunderbolts:
which were killed by them: this is to be understood of the fire that was mingled with the hail, and ran upon the ground, and destroyed their flocks, ( Exodus 9:23 Exodus 9:24 ) . Jarchi, out of the Midrash, interprets the words of fowls which devoured the sheep killed by the hail.

Psalm 78:48 In-Context

46 Di贸 tambi茅n al pulg贸n sus frutos, Y sus trabajos 谩 la langosta.
47 Sus vi帽as destruy贸 con granizo, Y sus higuerales con piedra;
48 Y entreg贸 al pedrisco sus bestias, Y al fuego sus ganados.
49 Envi贸 sobre ellos el furor de su sa帽a, Ira y enojo y angustia, Con misi贸n de malos 谩ngeles.
50 Dispuso el camino 谩 su furor; No eximi贸 la vida de ellos de la muerte, Sino que entreg贸 su vida 谩 la mortandad.
