וְאִם־לֹ֤א תִשְׁמְעוּ֙ בְּק֣וֹל יְהוָ֔ה וּמְרִיתֶ֖ם אֶת־פִּ֣י יְהוָ֑ה וְהָיְתָ֧ה יַד־יְהוָ֛ה בָּכֶ֖ם וּבַאֲבֹתֵיכֶֽם׃
Tetapi jika kalian tidak mendengarkan suara Yang Mahakekal dan memberontak terhadap firman Yang Mahakekal, maka tangan Yang Mahakekal akan melawan kalian, sebagaimana dahulu melawan nenek moyang kalian.
Ein Yaakov (Glick Edition)
(Deut. 28, 22) Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people. R. Chanan b. Raba said in the name of Rab: "This refers to the father's wife (stepmother." (Ib. 32, 21) I will provoke them to anger with a worthless nation. R. Chanan b. Raba said: "This refers to a bad wife who has a large Kethuba." R. Elazar said: "This refers to the Sadducees, and so also says the passage (Ps. 14, 1) The worthless fool saith in his heart, 'There is no God.' " In a Baraitha it was taught that the last passage refers to the inhabitants of Barbara and Mauretania, who walk nude in the streets, for none is more detested and abhorred before the Lord than he who walketh naked. R. Jochanan said: "The above passage refers to the Parsee." R. Jochanan was informed that the Parsee came to Babylon, [and entered the Jewish colonies.] He staggered [from fright.] and fell down, but when he was informed that they took a bribe [to annul a decree], he straightened himself and sat down comfortably. He was then informed: "They decreed against three things." "This was because of the following three transgressions," was his reply. "They decreed against meat because of the sin of not giving the priestly gifts; they decreed against bathing, because of the [neglect] of the religious Tebilah; they dug out the dead, because of the sin of rejoicing at their religious days, as it is said (I Sam. 12, 15) Then will the hand of the Lord be against you, as it was against your fathers. Whereupon Rabba b. Samuel said that it refers to the evil act of digging out the dead, for the master said: 'On account of the sins committed by the living, the dead are dug out of their graves.'"
Midrash Tehillim
"Who will give salvation to Israel from Zion? When the Lord brings back his people from exile, Jacob will rejoice, Israel will be glad." The Lord said to Israel when their children were punished along with their fathers, as it is written (1 Samuel 12:15), "But if you disobey the Lord and rebel against his commands, his hand will be against you, as it was against your ancestors." Even when you are comforted, your fathers will be comforted with you. This is what is meant by "Who will give salvation to Israel from Zion?"
