Commentary on Deuteronomy 28:42

Theological / Devotional

Locust. Translated from a different word from that used in v. 38, but a variety of locust.

Consume. Literally, “to take possession of,” “to inherit,” “to dispossess,” and so used more than 200 times in the OT. The locusts would completely take over the land and leave it a wilderness.
