Deuteronomy 28:37

And thou shall become an astonishment
To neighbouring nations, that shall hear of their overthrow and captivity, and that shall see the miserable condition they are brought into:

a proverb and a byword among all nations whither the Lord shall lead
thee;
both for the wickedness committed by them, and for the ill usage of them by the nations among whom they should be, as they were in the Babylonish captivity; see ( Jeremiah 24:9 ) ; and now are, it being common to say,

``do you think I am a Jew?''

or,

``none but a Jew would have done such a thing.''
