Leviticus 26:15 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 26:15

And if ye shall despise my statutes
Which is an aggravated sin; to be negligent hearers of the commands of God is bad, not to be doers of them worse, but to treat them with contempt is worse still: or if your soul abhor my judgments:
which is worst of all, to despise them as if not wisely or righteously made is a dreadful reflection upon the Maker of them; but to abhor them as bad things, not fit to be regarded, but to be had in the utmost detestation, is shocking impiety: so that ye will not do all my commandments;
nor any of them, but are set against them, and determined and resolved on the contrary: [but] that ye break my covenant;
the covenant made with them at Sinai, when they promised, on their part, that they would hearken and be obedient, ( Exodus 24:7 ) .

13 For I am the Lorde youre God, whiche broughte you out off the lande of the Egiptians, that ye shulde not be their bondemen, and I brake the bowes of youre yockes, and made you go vprighte.

14 But and yf ye will not harken vnto me, nor will do all these my commaundementes,

16 then I will do this agayne vnto you: I will viset you with vexations, swellynge and feuers, that shall make youre eyes dasell and with sorowes of herte. And ye shall sowe youre seed in vayne, for youre enemyes shall eate it.

17 And I will set my face agenste you and ye shal fall before youre enemyes, and they that hate you shal raigne ouer you, ad ye shall flee whe no man foloweth you.
