Commentary on Deuteronomy 28:52

Theological / Devotional

Besiege thee. A word picture of the flight of the people to their walled towns and cities, with the countryside, where the food of the nation is produced, deserted.

Walls come down. Even their last strongholds were to be reduced, leaving them without refuge. Starvation, due to the fields lying waste, would contribute to the fall of the fenced cities (see Jer. 5:17).
