This promise reflects God's covenantal relationship with Israel, emphasizing His role as healer and protector. In the context of the ancient Near East, where medical knowledge was limited, divine intervention in health was a significant assurance. This phrase echoes <a href="/exodus/15-26.htm">Exodus 15:26</a>, where God declares Himself as the healer of Israel. It also foreshadows the New Testament, where Jesus heals the sick, demonstrating God's power over physical ailments (<a href="/matthew/8-16.htm">Matthew 8:16-17</a>).He will not lay upon you any of the terrible diseases you knew in Egypt, The reference to diseases known in Egypt highlights the plagues that afflicted the Egyptians during the Exodus (Exodus 7-12). These plagues were both physical and symbolic, representing God's judgment against the false gods of Egypt. The Israelites, having witnessed these events, would understand this promise as a reassurance of divine protection. This also serves as a reminder of God's past deliverance and His ability to shield His people from harm, as seen in <a href="/psalms/91-3.htm">Psalm 91:3-6</a>.but He will inflict them on all who hate you. This phrase underscores the principle of divine retribution, where God promises to protect His people and bring judgment upon their enemies. It reflects the covenantal blessings and curses outlined in <a href="/deuteronomy/28.htm">Deuteronomy 28</a>. Theologically, this can be seen as a type of Christ's ultimate victory over sin and death, where those who oppose God's kingdom face judgment (<a href="/revelation/19-11.htm">Revelation 19:11-21</a>). Historically, this promise would have been a source of comfort and encouragement for Israel as they faced hostile nations in the Promised Land.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/t/the_lord.htm">The LORD (Yahweh)</a> The covenant-keeping God of Israel, who promises protection and health to His people. 2. <a href="/topical/i/israelites.htm">Israelites</a> The chosen people of God, who are recipients of His promises and commandments. 3. <a href="/topical/e/egypt.htm">Egypt</a> The land where the Israelites were enslaved, representing bondage and suffering. 4. <a href="/topical/d/diseases_of_egypt.htm">Diseases of Egypt</a> Refers to the plagues and afflictions that God brought upon Egypt, symbolizing divine judgment. 5. <a href="/topical/e/enemies_of_israel.htm">Enemies of Israel</a> Those who oppose God's people and, by extension, oppose God Himself.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><a href="/topical/g/god's_sovereignty_in_health.htm">God's Sovereignty in Health</a> God is sovereign over all aspects of life, including health.

It must not be forgotten that the law of Moses was in many of its details a sanitary quite as much as a moral code. Some of the associations of this word and the root from which it is derived would seem to point to those "languors" and "infirmities" which arise from neglect and violation of the laws of God, both moral and physical.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/deuteronomy/7.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verse 15. - The mercy of God should be showed to them also in preserving them from sickness, especially of a virulent and dangerous kind, such as they had seen in Egypt, where disease has in all ages readily assumed a malignant character ('Encyc.
