Deuteronomy 29:18-19
man <0376> [among you man.]
root <08328> [among you a root.]
poisonous ... bitter fruit <07219 03939> [gall and wormwood. or, a poisonful herb. Heb. rosh.]
oath <0423> [this curse.]
blesses <01288> [that he bless.]
<03588 03212> [though I walk.]
stubborn <08307> [imagination. or, stubborness.]
destroy <05595> [to add.]
A very forcible metaphor, denoting the natural progress and increasing avidity of sinful passions and depraved inclinations; which lead men to drink down iniquity as the drunkard does his liquor, without regard to the consequences. Some render, "to add thirst to drunkenness;" and then it implies the insatiableness of men's sinful passions, which hanker for more and more indulgence after the greatest excesses.
watered ..... parched <07302 06771> [drunkenness to thirst. Heb. the drunken to the thirsty.]
