The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:26-37

The conquest of Sihon. Sihon, though an Amorite, was not to be unconditionally destroyed. He had, like Pharaoh, an opportunity given him of averting ruin by acceding to a most courteous and reasonable request; but, like Pharaoh in this respect also, he hardened his heart, and took the course which made his destruction inevitable. We are led to consider— I. SIHON 'S OPPORTUNITY . ( Deuteronomy 2:26-30 .) It was not given him in the hope that he would avail himself of it; for it... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:31-37

God had determined to give Sihon and his land to the Israelites, and so certainly should this be done, that Moses is exhorted already to begin to seize, in order to possess the land. Sihon initiated hostilities by coming out with all his host to fight against Moses and the Israelites. The battle took place at Jahaz (or Jahazah, or Jahza), a town between Medeba and Dibon (Euseb.; cf. Numbers 33:45 ), afterwards belonging to the tribe of Reuben ( Joshua 13:18 ), and assigned to the Levites... read more

(cf. Numbers 22:24 , Numbers 22:25 ; Numbers 32:34 , Numbers 32:35 , etc.).— And utterly destroyed the men, and the women, and the little ones …. we left none to remain. As the Amorites came out of Canaan, they belonged to the race which God had doomed to destruction. The Israelites, therefore, had a commission to extirpate them. Utterly destroyed ; literally, devoted or placed under a ban , which of course implied utter destruction. The men , and the women , and the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:36

Aroer , one of the Amorite cities, on the right bank of the river Arnon (cf. Joshua 12:2 ; Joshua 13:16 ). On the Moabite Stone, King Mesha says, "I built Aroer;" but this can only mean that, after some temporary condition of decay or ruin, he rebuilt it. On the borders of the northern side of the Wady Mojeb, there are heaps of ruins bearing the name of Ara'ir, which probably mark the site of this ancient town. There was another Aroer, belonging at a later period to the tribe of Gad, and... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 2:34

Utterly destroyed the men, and the women, and the little ones, of every city - Render, laid under ban (compare Leviticus 27:28 note) every inhabited city, both women and children: these last words being added by way of fuller explanation. read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 2:36

Aroer, which is by the brink of the river of Arnon - Aroer stood on the north bank of the river, and was assigned Joshua 13:9, Joshua 13:16 to the tribe of Reuben, of which it formed the most southerly city. The valley of the Arnon is here deep, and the descent to it abrupt. In Roman times it was spanned by a viaduct, the ruins of which still remain, and which was probably built on the lines of the original structure of Mesha 2 Kings 3:5. Aroer here must not be confounded with “Aroer, which is... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:1-37

From Kadesh to Jordan (2:1-3:29)God told the Israelites that if they went through the land of Edom, they were not to seize any territory. This was partly because Edom was Israel’s brother nation (being descended from Esau), and partly because the Edomites’ territory, formerly possessed by the Horites, had been given them by God (2:1-7). Similar restrictions applied to Israel’s relations with the nations of Moab and Ammon, both of which were also related to Israel (being descended from Lot).... read more
