John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 3:10

All the cities of the plain ,.... There was a plain by Medeba, and Heshbon and her cities were in a plain, with some others given to the tribe of Reuben, Joshua 13:16 . and all Gilead ; Mount Gilead, and the cities belonging to it, a very fruitful country, half of which fell to the share of the Reubenites, and the rest to the half tribe of Manasseh: and all Bashan ; of which Og was king, called Batanea, a very fertile country, as before observed: unto Salcah and Edrei, cities of... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 3:4

All the region of Argob - ארגב חבל כל col chebel Argob , all the cable or cord of Argob; this expression, which is used in various other parts of Scripture, (see, in the original, Amos 7:17 ; Micah 2:5 ; Deuteronomy 32:9 ; Psalm 16:6 ;), shows that anciently land was measured by lines or cords of a certain length, in a similar way to that by the chain among us, and the schoenus or cord among the Egyptians. Some think that it was the region of Argob that was afterwards called... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 3:4

Verse 4 4.And we took all the cities. He here more fully relates what He had brieflytouched upon in Numbers. He says that sixty, well-fortified cities were taken, besides the villages. Hence we infer both the extent of the country, and also the special power of God in the aid He afforded them, in that they took, in so short a time, so many cities well closed in, and begirt with high walls; as if they were merely travelling, through a peaceful land in security, and with nothing to do. After the... read more

(Cf. Numbers 21:33 ) We turned — i . e . took a new route— and went up ( וַנַּעַל , and we ascended). As Bashan was an upland region, they are very properly said to have gone up. Edrei , hod .

EXPOSITION CONQUEST OF OG , KING OF BASHAN . The Amorites had wrested from Moab a portion of the territory taken by the Moabites and the Edomites from the giant aborigines; and Og, who was of the same giant race, ruled over the northern half of the region of Gilead and over all Bashan. This district also God purposed Israel to possess; and therefore, before crossing the Jordan , a diversion was made north. wards by the Israelites, for the purpose of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 3:1-12

The conquest of Og. Og, King of Bashan, was a yet more formidable adversary than Sihon. We read with wonder of that extraordinary territory over which he ruled, the region of Argob, with its sixty cities built of black stone, hard as iron, and perched amidst the masses of basaltic rock, which are the characteristic feature of the district, and which formed an apparently impregnable barrier against assault. The suddenness, completeness, and decisiveness of the conquest of this region,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 3:1-17

The destruction of Og, King of Bashan. We have here an account of another conquest, for which the victory over Sihon, King of the Amorites, prepared the people. Bashan was "called the land of the giants" ( Deuteronomy 3:13 ), and Og, the king, was manifestly the greatest of the giants—hence the particulars about his bedstead, as being nine cubits long and four broad ( Deuteronomy 3:11 ). In a rude age and country , force was the recognized ruler, and the biggest man in consequence... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 3:1-20

Self-propagating conquest. There is solid truth in the French proverb: "It is the first step that costs." An untried course makes large demands on a man's thought, self-watchfullness, and energy; but when habit is acquired, the machinery of the soul works with smooth facility. Enterprises which are most arduous at the first, become by repetition as simple as a natural instinct. I. CONQUEST INDUCES NEW ENERGY . The joy of conquest is a spur to fresh endeavor. The appetite for... read more
