Leviticus 26:18-19
Excerpted from: Warning of Judgment, Urgency to Prepare!Most of the references to bronze, which is 154 out of 160 occurrences, are in the Old Testament. These references are usually associated with judgment.
If the Israelites did not obey God, the earth would become hard and fruitless and unresponsive to human efforts so that no crop could grow, even as nothing could grow on brass or bronze. There is no way to grow anything on those hard metal objects. By using the metal bronze, the lesson is taught that the drought and the famine are a result of God's judgment on the land for the sins of the people. Biblically, bronze and iron represent hardness and strength.
Leviticus 26:14-29
Excerpted from: Don't Take God for GrantedLeviticus 26 and Deuteronomy 28 are the "blessings and cursings" chapters of the Bible. It may have been quite some time since last we read these sections. Consider these scriptures in light of what we have just discussed: the increasing pressure that God applies in order to draw us closer to Him and to stop taking Him for granted. We will look at the section in Leviticus here.
Can we see how these curses are increasingly intensified each time Israel fails to repent of neglecting God?
Leviticus 26:18-20
Excerpted from: RainSo, God makes no bones about it. The control of the weather is in His hands, and it is entirely dependent on whether they will obey Him or not.
