SEV Biblia, Chapter 32:22
Porque fuego se encenderá en mi furor, y arderá hasta el infierno más profundo; y devorará la tierra y sus frutos, y abrasará los fundamentos de los montes.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:22
Verse 22. The lowest hell] tytjt lwa sheol tachtith, the very deepest destruction; a total extermination, so that the earth-their land, and its increase, and all their property, should be seized; and the foundations of their mountains- their strongest fortresses, should be razed to the ground. All this was fulfilled in a most remarkable manner in the last destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans, so that of the fortifications of that city not one stone was left on another. See the notes on Matthew 24.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 22. For a fire is kindled in mine anger , etc.] Here begins the account of temporal and corporeal judgments inflicted on the Jews for their disbelief and rejection of the Messiah, their contempt of his Gospel, and ill treatment of his followers; and this here respects the destruction of the land of Judea in general, and the burning of the city and temple of Jerusalem in particular, as the effect of the wrath and anger of God like fire kindled against them: and shall burn unto the lowest hell ; which denotes an entire destruction, like that of the burning of Sodom and Gomorrah with fire and brimstone from heaven; which issued in a sulphurous lake, and which sulphureous matter sunk to the bottom of the Dead Sea; and to that destruction is this of the land of Judea compared, ( Deuteronomy 29:23); and shall consume the earth with her increase : the land of Judea, with the cities and towns in it, and buildings on it, and the fruits of the earth; which were either gathered into their barns and storehouses, or were growing in their fields, and vineyards, and oliveyards; all were destroyed and consumed at or before the destruction of Jerusalem, or quickly after it: and set on fire the foundations of the mountains ; the city of Jerusalem, as Jarchi himself interprets it, whose foundations were by the mountains, according to ( <19C502> Psalm 125:2); and the temple of Jerusalem particularly was built on Mount Moriah, and that as well as the city was utterly consumed by fire: and it is remarkable that when Julian the apostate attempted to rebuild it, as is related even by an Heathen historian f599 , that flames of fire burst out from the foundations, and burnt the workmen; so that he was obliged to desist from his rash undertaking.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 19-25 - The revolt of Israel was described in the foregoing verses, and her follow the resolves of Divine justice as to them. We deceive ourselves if we think that God will be mocked by a faithless people. Sin makes u hateful in the sight of the holy God. See what mischief sin does, an reckon those to be fools that mock at it.
