Deuteronomy 28:61 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 28:61

Also every sickness and every plague which [is] not written in
the book of this law
Which is not here mentioned or threatened; and it suggests, that whatsoever sickness or disease that could be thought of or named, or were at any time in any place among men, might be expected to come upon them for their disobedience:

them will the Lord bring upon thee until thou be destroyed;
the Jews themselves F8 own this has been fulfilled on them.

Deuteronomy 28:61 In-Context

59 then the Lord will overwhelm both you and your offspring with severe and lasting afflictions and grievous and lasting maladies.
60 He will bring back upon you all the diseases of Egypt, of which you were in dread, and they shall cling to you.
61 Every other malady and affliction, even though not recorded in the book of this law, the Lord will inflict on you until you are destroyed.
62 Although once you were as numerous as the stars in heaven, you shall be left few in number, because you did not obey the Lord your God.
63 And just as the Lord took delight in making you prosperous and numerous, so the Lord will take delight in bringing you to ruin and destruction; you shall be plucked off the land that you are entering to possess.
