Bodily sickness and diseases, prevent the coming of them, or remove them when come:and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt which thou knowest upon thee; meaning either the plagues that were inflicted upon them to oblige them to let the Israelites go, of which they had perfect knowledge; or else some noxious and nauseous diseases, which were common among, and peculiar to, the Egyptians, particularly what is called the botch of Egypt; see Ex 15:26, likewise the leprosy;See Gill on "Le 13:2",See Gill on "De 28:27".
