Commentators emphasize that this judgment was not random but a direct fulfillment of God's prior warnings. Matthew Henry specifically connects this event to the covenant curses in Leviticus 26, where God promised that if Israel turned to idols, they would 'have no power to stand before their enemies.' Their suffering was a direct consequence of their sin.
