Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(16) I also will do this unto you.--That is, He will do the same unto them; He will requite them in the same way, and abhor them.I will even appoint over you terror.--Better, and I will appoint, &c, that is, God will visit them with terrible things, consisting of consumption and burning ague. These two diseases also occur together in Deuteronomy 28:22, the only passage in the Bible where they occur again. The second of the two, however, which is here translated "burning ague" in the Authorised Version, is, in the Deuteronomy passage, rendered simply by "fever." The two passages ought to be uniformly rendered.That shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart.--Better, that shall extinguish the eyes, and cause life to waste away. The rendering of the Authorised Version, "consume the eyes," though giving the sense, is misleading, inasmuch as it suggests that the verb "consume" is the same as the disease, "consumption" mentioned in the preceding clause. For the phrase "extinguish the eye"--the eye failing--see Job 11:20; Job 17:5; Job 31:16, &c, and for the whole phrase, comp. Deuteronomy 28:65; 1Samuel 2:23. . . .
