Go and teach all nations
The LORD’s penalties for disobedience - People who do not obey the Law will not give any pleasure to the Lord
Leviticus 26:14-17
The LORD will send illnesses to the people; His first attempt to call the Children of Israel back to Himself
v14 The Lord will be angry if the people do not listen to him. He will be angry if they do not obey his rules.
v15 The people may not respect or obey the Lord’s rules. So they will not be doing what they promised to him.
v16 So the Lord will send illnesses to the people. They will be afraid. The people will have illnesses in their eyes. They will get thin and they will die.
They will plant their seed and their enemies will eat the fruit.
v17 The Lord will fight against you. Your enemies will win the war. They will become your rulers. Your soldiers will run away even when nobody is running after them.
