Deuteronomy 28:64

And the LORD shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, [even] wood and stone.

Ver. 64. And the Lord shall scatter thee.] The Jews are to this day a miserable, dejected, and dispersed people, abhorred of God and men, and exiled out of the world, as it were, by a common consent of nations.
