申命記 2:25 JC

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:24-25

Here the LORD begins to give Israel an earnest of his promises. But what a delightful subject is this, when realized to the true believer in JESUS: when after all the skirmishes, conflicts, and trials, through the wilderness, the LORD gives his people to see that they are more than conquerors, through his grace helping them. Oh! for the earnest of the SPIRIT, which brings the believing soul, through faith, into the very suburbs of heaven! 2 Corinthians 5:5 . read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 2:24-37

24-37 God tried his people, by forbidding them to meddle with the rich countries of Moab and Ammon. He gives them possession of the country of the Amorites. If we keep from what God forbids, we shall not lose by our obedience. The earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof; and he gives it to whom he pleases; but when there is no express direction, none can plead his grant for such proceedings. Though God assured the Israelites that the land should be their own, yet they must contend with the... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Deuteronomy 2:16-37

The Defeat of Sihon v. 16. So it came to pass, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people, the punishment of God having struck them according to His word, v. 17. that the Lord spake unto me, saying, v. 18. Thou art to pass over through Ar, the coast of Moab, this day; v. 19. and when thou comest nigh over against the children of Ammon, whose territory was chiefly east and northeast of that of the Amorites, distress them not, nor meddle with them, assume no hostile... read more

(Deuteronomy 1:6-8).6The Lord our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount: 7Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all [his neighbors—see marg.] the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea-side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:16-37

Conquering beyond Jordan Deuteronomy 2:16-37 In the earlier verses of this portion we catch a glimpse of the former history of Palestine, with the wars of conquest and changes of tenure that swept over it. The Almighty Governor of the world was, as the Apostle Paul said afterward, determining seasons and frontiers. Nations enervated by their sins are continually being judged by the Prince of the kings of the earth. See Leviticus 18:28 ; Acts 17:26-27 ; Revelation 1:5 ; Matthew 25:32 . A... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 2:1-37

Continuing his discourse, Moses reviewed the second movement from Kadesh-barnea to Heshbon. The notes which characterized the description of the first period are found also in this review of the second period. All that Moses told them they knew as to the actual facts of the long and tedious road they had traveled in the weary years which were now drawing to a close. The great burden of his message to them was emphasizing the fact of how even amidst such sorrowful and severe discipline they had... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:1-37

Turning Backward Deuteronomy 2:1-37 and Deuteronomy 3:1-29 INTRODUCTORY WORDS Last week we closed with God's refusal to permit the Children of Israel to go into the land of Canaan. They had come up to Kadesh-barnea; they had sent spies into the land, but they had rebelled against the Lord and had not believed Him. For this cause, and because of their murmurings, the Lord said, "Turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness." Last week we saw that God had told them of how they started... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 2:25

“ This day will I begin to put the dread of you and the fear of you on the peoples who are under the whole heaven, who will hear the report about you, and will tremble, and be in anguish because of you.” This day is the day when they ‘passed over Ar the border of Moab’. Serious battles were now beginning. Not only would they defeat the Amorites, but that defeat would echo and re-echo throughout the vicinity, including Canaan. People would begin to fear them and their approach, and tremble.... read more
