Deuteronomy 28
1. The blessings for obedience
15. The curses for disobedience














He will bring upon you
This phrase indicates a direct action from God, emphasizing His sovereignty and control over the events that befall the Israelites. In the Hebrew text, the verb used here is "יָשִׁיב" (yashiv), which means "to bring back" or "to return." This suggests a reversal of the deliverance they experienced from Egypt, highlighting the covenantal relationship where blessings and curses are contingent upon obedience.

all the diseases of Egypt
The "diseases of Egypt" refer to the plagues and afflictions that God sent upon Egypt during the time of the Exodus. Historically, these diseases were both physical and symbolic of divine judgment. The mention of Egypt serves as a reminder of the Israelites' past bondage and the miraculous deliverance they experienced. It underscores the seriousness of turning away from God's commandments, as the same afflictions that once demonstrated God's power over their oppressors could now be used against them.

which you dreaded
The Hebrew word for "dreaded" is "יָגֹרְתָּ" (yagorta), conveying a deep fear or terror. This fear was not just of physical ailments but of the spiritual and existential threat they represented. The Israelites' dread of these diseases reflects their understanding of the severity of God's judgment and the consequences of disobedience. It serves as a powerful motivator for adherence to the covenant.

and they will cling to you
The verb "cling" in Hebrew is "וּדָבְקוּ" (udavku), which implies a persistent and inseparable attachment. This imagery suggests that these diseases would not be easily shaken off, symbolizing the inescapable nature of divine retribution when the covenant is broken. The use of this term highlights the enduring impact of disobedience and the importance of maintaining faithfulness to God's laws.

(60) The diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of.--Contrast Exodus 15:26. "If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of Jehovah . . . I will put none of these diseases of Egypt which thou knowest, upon thee; for I am Jehovah, that healeth thee" But, on the other hand, it is said (Ezekiel 7:9), "Ye shall know that I am Jehovah that smiteth." eJehovah-Ropheka and Jehovah-Makkeh are one Jehovah.

Verses 60, 61. - The diseases of Egypt are the plagues sent on Pharaoh and his people, as recorded in Exodus 7. - 11. Besides these, other plagues, not recorded in the Book of the Law, should come on rebellious Israel, so that they should be almost utterly destroyed.
