Adam Clarke on Leviticus 26:22

I will also send wild beasts among you - God fulfilled these threatenings at different times. He sent fiery Serpents among them, Num 21:6; Lions, 2Kgs 17:25; Bears, 2Kgs 2:24, and threatened them with total desolation, so that their land should be overrun with wild beasts, etc., see Eze 5:17. "Spiritually," says Mr. Ainsworth, "these are wicked rulers and tyrants that kill and spoil, Pro 28:15; Dan 7:3-6; Psa 80:13; and false prophets that devour souls, Mat 7:15; Rev 13:1, etc. So the prophet, speaking of their punishment by tyrants, says: A Lion out of the forest shall slay them; a Wolf of the evening shall spoil them; a Leopard shall watch over their cities; every one that goeth out thence shall be torn to pieces, because their transgressions be many. And of their prophets it is said: O Israel, thy prophets are like Foxes in the deserts, Eze 13:4; Jer 8:17; Jer 15:3."
