Deuteronomy 7:15 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 7:15

And will take away from thee all sickness
Bodily sickness and diseases, prevent the coming of them, or remove them when come:

and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt which thou knowest
upon thee;
meaning either the plagues that were inflicted upon them to oblige them to let the Israelites go, of which they had perfect knowledge; or else some noxious and nauseous diseases, which were common among, and peculiar to, the Egyptians, particularly what is called the botch of Egypt; see ( Exodus 15:26 ) , likewise the leprosy; (See Gill on Leviticus 13:2), (See Gill on Deuteronomy 28:27).

but will lay them upon all them that hate thee;
with which God sometimes punishes his and his people's enemies; see ( Judges 5:9 ) ( Revelation 16:10 Revelation 16:11 ) .

Deuteronomy 7:15 In-Context

13 and he will love you, and bless you, and multiply you; he will also bless the fruit of your body and the fruit of your ground, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your cattle and the young of your flock, in the land which he swore to your fathers to give you.
14 You shall be blessed above all peoples: there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your cattle.
15 Yahweh will take away from you all sickness; and none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which you know, will he put on you, but will lay them on all those who hate you.
16 You shall consume all the peoples who Yahweh your God shall deliver to you; your eye shall not pity them: neither shall you serve their gods; for that will be a snare to you.
17 If you shall say in your heart, These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them?
