Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible

Deuteronomy 28:68

After the capture of Jerusalem the Roman general Titus sent a great many captives to the Egyptian mines.

No man shall buy you] This does not mean 'shall redeem you,' but 'purchase you as slaves.' They would be exposed for sale as slaves, and no man would consider them worth the buying.
