• We must beware of confounding Deuteronomy 27 with Deuteronomy 28. The two chapters are distinct in principle. It is not merely a question of form, but they are altogether distinct in character. A scripture which will help much to put this in a clear light is the use that the Apostle Paul makes of Deuteronomy 27 in citing it in Galatians 3. He does not quote from Deuteronomy 28....Deuteronomy 27. Of what is the Apostle treating? Not merely of that which pertains to the present life. He is looking at law as that which brings in the curse forever....We shall see that the blessings and the curses of Deuteronomy 28 are strictly those that pertain to the actual curse of man here below. (“Deuteronomy 27 & 28” by W. Kelly)
