Deuteronomy 28:60 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 28:60

Moreover, he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt,
&c.] All that in a way of judgment were brought upon the Egyptians for refusing to let Israel go; or all such diseases as were peculiar to them, and common among them, as the leprosy, the itch, ulcers

which thou wast afraid of;
when living among them, lest they should catch them of them, or they should be inflicted on them by the hand of God:

and they shall cleave unto thee;
not only should come upon them, but continue with them; they should not easily get rid of them, or be cured of them.

Deuteronomy 28:60 In-Context

58 If you will not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear this glorious and fearful name, YAHWEH YOUR GOD;

59 then Yahweh will make your plagues wonderful, and the plagues of your seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.

60 He will bring on you again all the diseases of Egypt, which you were afraid of; and they shall cleave to you.

61 Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, them will Yahweh bring on you, until you are destroyed.

62 You shall be left few in number, whereas you were as the stars of the sky for multitude; because you didn't listen to the voice of Yahweh your God.
