28:16-20
These are a very clear negation of the blessings. If they obeyed things would just work, if they did not then nothing would work. “The Lord will send on you curses, confusion and rebuke in everything you put your hand to”. This sums up the whole situation. The nation of Israel existed solely because God had chosen them and created them. So they needed to stick close to God. As a race, humanity exists solely because God created us, indeed chose us. It is foolishness of us to turn away from God or pay Him no heed.
28:21-25
There is a relentlessness of God’s judgement, there will be no escape. There are many who reject the concept of God and judgement, or God and wrath. There is no Biblical foundation at all for such notions. Instead of enemies coming in by one way and fleeing by seven, Israel would come at her enemies by one way, but flee by seven.
