Context — God's Assurance to Israelgenerated

43For the land will be abandoned by them, and it will enjoy its Sabbaths by lying desolate without them. And they will pay the penalty for their iniquity, because they rejected My ordinances and abhorred My statutes.
44Yet in spite of this, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject or despise them so as to destroy them and break My covenant with them; for I am the LORD their God.
45But for their sake I will remember the covenant with their fathers, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God. I am the LORD.”
46These are the statutes, ordinances, and laws that the LORD established between Himself and the Israelites through Moses on Mount Sinai.

Leviticus 26:44 speaks to God's unwavering commitment to Israel, even when they face the consequences of their actions while in the land of their enemies. Despite their failures, God emphasizes that He will not reject or despise them, ensuring that His covenant remains intact. This assurance is crucial in the broader context of Israel's relationship with God, especially when they feel abandoned due to their disobedience, as also seen in Leviticus 26:43 and Leviticus 26:45.

The Key Word מְאַסְתִּ֤ים, me.'as.Timgenerated

The verb מָאַס (ma'ac) means to reject or spurn. It is used in contexts where something or someone is deemed unworthy or undesirable. The parsing indicates a perfect tense, first person singular, showing that God Himself is the subject who will not cast away His people, highlighting His active role in maintaining the covenant.

This rejection is not merely a passive absence; it is a strong, active decision to uphold His relationship with Israel despite their failings. The usage of this verb underscores God's commitment to His covenant, even when Israel may feel unworthy.


How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated

This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.


Sentence Structuregenerated

The verse consists of a main clause introduced by a conjunction, with several subordinate clauses providing context and detail. The finite verb מְאַסְתִּ֤ים (me'as'tim) governs the sentence, indicating God's action towards Israel. The structure emphasizes God's commitment amidst Israel's circumstances.

The use of conjunctions and prepositional phrases throughout the verse connects the ideas of rejection and covenant, illustrating the complex relationship between God's promises and Israel's actions.


Septuagint Backgroundgenerated

The Septuagint translates מְאַסְתִּ֤ים as ἀπορρίψω (aporrhipō), which means to cast away. This choice suggests a similar sentiment of rejection but may also imply a more definitive separation, highlighting the seriousness of God's commitment to not abandon His people.

The translation of גְעַלְתִּ֙ים as ἐξελέγξω (exelengxō) indicates a strong disapproval, reinforcing the emotional weight of God's feelings towards Israel's actions.

From this place the Jews take great comfort, and assure themselves of deliverance out of their present servitude and misery.

Verse 44.

He still remembers the covenant of their ancestors, and in his providence and grace he has some very important design in their favour.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran

The Masoretic Text (MT) states that even when the people are in the land of their enemies, God will not reject or despise them, nor will He break His covenant with them. The Septuagint (LXX) closely aligns with the MT, as 16 of the 18 words match, although the exact wording and structure differ due to the translation. The Samaritan Pentateuch (SP) introduces two differences: it uses the word 'ארצות' (earths) instead of 'אֶרֶץ' (land) and 'כלותם' (to be complete) in place of 'כַּלֹּתָם' (to destroy them), but it maintains the overall meaning of the verse in agreement with the MT.

ov:

(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man.
