Charles Ellicott Commentary
"a nation of fierce countenance, that shall not regard the person of the old, nor show favor to the young," — Deuteronomy 28:50 (ASV)
Which shall not regard the person of the old, nor show favour to the young. — Compare 2 Chronicles 36:17, The king of the Chaldecs had no compassion upon young man or maiden, old man or him that stooped for age; and Lamentations 5:12, Princes are hanged up by their hand: the faces of elders were not honoured.
