Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(29) Thou shalt not prosper in thy ways.--The exact opposite is promised to Joshua (Deuteronomy 1:8) if he follows the Book of the Law. (Comp. Isaiah 29:10-14.) When men find it no longer possible to follow the word of God, it is written that "the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid."Oppressed.--The children of Israel and of Judah were "oppressed "together (Jeremiah 50:33). But it is added, "Their Redeemer is strong" (Deuteronomy 28:34).Spoiled.--The word occurs again in Deuteronomy 28:31 : "Violently taken away." . . .
