John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:9

And the Lord said unto me ,.... When upon the borders of Moab: distress not the Moabites, neither contend with than in battle ; besiege not any of their cities, nor draw them into a battle, or provoke them to fight: for I will not give thee of their land for a possession ; at least not as yet, the measure of their sins not being fully up, and the time of their punishment not come; otherwise in David's time they were subdued, and became tributaries to him, and the Edomites also, 2... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:10

The Emims dwelt there in time past ,.... We read of them as early as the times of Chedorlaomer, Genesis 14:5 when their dwelling was in Kirjathaim, a city which Sihon king of the Amorites took from the Moabites, and which being taken from him, was with others given to the tribe of Reuben, Numbers 32:37 . These are by some thought to be the same with the Yemim which Anah found and met with in the wilderness, and defeated, which we render "mules", Genesis 36:24 . They had their name from... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:11

Which also were accounted giants, as the Anakims ,.... Because of their bulky size and tall stature; or,"the Rephaim were they accounted, even they as the Anakims;'they were reckoned Rephaim, a name for giants in early times, even as the Anakims were; see Genesis 14:5 . but the Moabites called them Emims ; to distinguish them from the Rephaim; so that it seems this name of Emims was not originally their name, but they are called so by a prolepsis, or anticipation, in Genesis 14:5 ... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:12

The Horims also dwelt in Seir before time ,.... Which is the name of a mount, and so of the country, from it; so called from Seir the Horite, who dwelt in it before it was possessed by Esau and his sons; but who the Horim or Horites were, from whence they had their name, is difficult to say; they were as early as the times of Chedorlaomer, Genesis 14:6 . They seem to be so called from their dwelling in holes and caves in rocks, which the southern part of Edom or Idumea was full of, and to... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:13

Now rise up, said I, and get you over the brook Zered ,.... It is called the valley of Zered, Numbers 21:12 , the word used signifying both a valley and a brook; and it is very probable there were both a valley and a brook of the same name; it must be near Dibongad, since in one place it is said the Israelites came from Ijim and pitched in Zered; and in another place that they came from thence, and pitched in Dibongad, Numbers 21:11 and Nu 33:45 . and we went over the brook Zered ... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:14

And the space in which we came from Kadeshbarnea ,.... The space of time; or, "the days" F2 והימים "et dies", Montanus; "dies autem", Junius & Tremellius, Piscator. ; the number of them: until we were come over the brook Zered, was thirty and eight years ; that is, from the time that the spies were sent and searched the land, and brought a report of it; for they were sent from Kadeshbarnea, Numbers 32:8 unto the passage of the Israelites over Zered, were thirty eight years;... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:15

For indeed the hand of the Lord was against them ,.... His power was exerted in a way of wrath and vengeance on them, for their murmurings at the report of the spies; and therefore, it is no wonder they were consumed, for strong is his hand, and high is his right hand; and when lifted up it falls heavy, and there is no standing up under it, or against it: it smote them with one disease or another, or brought one judgment or another upon them: as the sword of Amalek, by which many were cut... read more

So it came to pass, when all the men of war were consumed ,.... By wasting diseases and judgments of one kind or another: and dead from among the people ; the rising and surviving generation. read more

Thou art to pass over through Ar ,.... That is, over the river Arnon, by the city Ar of Moab, which was situated by it; see Deuteronomy 2:9 and so Moses and the people of Israel were to pass along by that: and by the coast of Moab ; for they were not admitted to enter the land and pass through it; only to travel on the borders of it, and that they were to begin to do this day; the day the Lord spake to Moses. read more
