Deuteronomium 28:38-39

38 Gij zult veel zaads op den akker uitbrengen, maar gij zult weinig inzamelen; want de sprinkhaan zal het verteren.

39 Wijngaarden zult gij planten, en bouwen, maar gij zult geen wijn drinken, noch iets vergaderen; want de worm zal het afeten.

Deuteronomium 28:38-39 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO DEUTERONOMY 28

In this chapter Moses enlarges on the blessings and the curses which belong, the one to the doers, the other to the transgressors of the law; the blessings, De 28:1-14; the curses, some of which concern individual persons, others the whole nation and body of people, and that both under the former and present dispensations, and which had their fulfilment in their former captivities, and more especially in their present dispersion, De 28:15-68.
