Tafsiran Ulangan 31:17: Rashi, Bekhor Shor, Chizkuni & Da'at Zekenim

וְחָרָ֣ה אַפִּ֣י ב֣וֹ בַיּוֹם־הַ֠הוּא וַעֲזַבְתִּ֞ים וְהִסְתַּרְתִּ֨י פָנַ֤י מֵהֶם֙ וְהָיָ֣ה לֶֽאֱכֹ֔ל וּמְצָאֻ֛הוּ רָע֥וֹת רַבּ֖וֹת וְצָר֑וֹת וְאָמַר֙ בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֔וּא הֲלֹ֗א עַ֣ל כִּֽי־אֵ֤ין אֱלֹהַי֙ בְּקִרְבִּ֔י מְצָא֖וּנִי הָרָע֥וֹת הָאֵֽלֶּה׃

Pada hari itu murka-Ku akan menyala terhadapnya. Aku akan meninggalkan mereka dan menyembunyikan wajah-Ku dari mereka, sehingga ia akan menjadi mangsa, dan banyak malapetaka serta kesesakan akan menimpanya. Pada hari itu ia akan berkata: ‘Bukankah malapetaka-malapetaka ini menimpa aku karena Allahku tidak ada di tengah-tengahku?’

Rashi

והסתרתי פני AND I WILL HIDE MY FACE FROM THEM, as though I do not see their distress.

Bekhor Shor

And I will conceal My Face from them this is the way of affection, like a person whose child has sinned agains them and they said to the child's teacher to strike them - they can't bring themselves to look at their child being beaten, because they take pity on them, and they hide their face.

Bekhor Shor

Many evils and troubles Evils which are made troubles to one another, like being stung by a hornet and a scorpion (Chagiga 5a) - cooling drugs are good for hornet stings, heating ones for scorpion stings, and the reverse is deadly. And if a hornet and a scorpion bite a person, they will be scared to come in the cold to be healed from the hornet because it's dangerous for the scorpion sting, and to come in the heat because of the horney sting, and they won't know what to do. So too the troubles of Israel in exile - when a nation oppresses them, they are scared to accept it lest they hate them, and if they don't accept it they will become accustomed to do this.
