Komentaryo sa Deuteronomio 29:27: Tze'enah Ure'enah, Rashi, Ramban & Ibn Ezra

“The Lord uprooted them … and cast them into another land” [29:27]. Because Israel did evil, the Holy One destroyed them and threw them out of their land into foreign lands. That is why [the letter] Lamed is larger in the word va-yashlikhem [cast them out]. That is, rulership and dominion were taken away from Israel.⁸Bahya, Deuteronomy, 29:27.

ויתשם ה׳ — Understand this as the Targum has it: וטלטלינון, “and He cast them out”. Similar is, (Jeremiah 12:14) “Behold, I cast them out (נתשם) from their land”.

AND THE ETERNAL ROOTED THEM OUT OF THEIR LAND, for He will exile the tribe that will do evil in the sight of the Eternal, as it is stated, and he [the king of Assyria] carried them away, even the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Menasheh.⁴²I Chronicles 5:26. The correct interpretation is that he is now alluding to the exile of all Israel, all of them being evil, and they will be banished in a complete exile. Similarly, the following chapter, And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee⁴³Further, 30:1. is a reference to the exile of all Israel, as he said, among all the nations whither the Eternal thy G-d hath driven thee,⁴³Further, 30:1. and so he concludes the entire chapter.
