F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:1-15

Journeying and Dying in the Wilderness Deuteronomy 1:41-46 ; Deuteronomy 2:1-15 We cannot obtain by our impetuosity and insistence what God offers only as a free gift to our faith. The Land of Promise is not to be obtained by strength of hand, but by the soul that lives in the will of God. Even when we are rebellious and unbelieving, God does not forget nor forsake us, Deuteronomy 2:7 . He knows our walking through the great wilderness which we have chosen. Through all the forty years He... 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 2:9-17

Their Dealings With Moab (Deu Deuteronomy 2:8-13 a). Moab too had been given possession of their land by Yahweh, because of His love for Abraham. Thus they too were not to be molested. And they were to note that in giving them the land He had dealt with the Emim, a people the equal of the Anakim. This passage can be analysed as follows: a They turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab (Deuteronomy 2:8 b). b They were not to vex Moab or contend with them for Yahweh would not... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 2:1-15

Deuteronomy 2:1-Ezra : . From Kadesh-barnea to Wady-Zered.— The present passage seems to contradict the parallel narrative in Numbers 20 f. Deuteronomy 2:1 b. i.e. we lingered in the neighbourhood of Mt. Seir a good length of time, viz. thirty-eight years ( Deuteronomy 2:7; Deuteronomy 2:14). Deuteronomy 2:4 . border: better, “ bordered territory,” the Heb. word means both.— your brethren: i.e. kinsmen (see Genesis 25:23-Ezekiel :; Genesis 36:43, Amos 1:11, Obadiah 1:10; Obadiah 1:12,... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Deuteronomy 2:10

Emims; men terrible for stature and strength, as their very name imports; see Genesis 14:5; whose expulsion by the Moabites is here noted as a great encouragement to the Israelites, for whose sake he would much more drive out the wicked and accursed Canaanites. read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:1-37

Chapter 2So we turned, and took our journey by way of the wilderness back toward the Red sea. And the LORD spake to me saying, you've compassed this mountain long enough: go north. And he commanded the people. saying, You're to pass through the coast of your brethren the children of Esau, which dwelled in Seir. But don't meddle with them; for I have not given you their land, not as much as a foot in it; because I've given mount Seir unto Esau for his possession. So you're to buy your meat and... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Deuteronomy 2:1-37

Deuteronomy 2:10 . The Emims; that is, men of terrific aspect with regard to stature, armour, and appearance. Deuteronomy 2:12 . The Horims, Horites, Genesis 14:6, which Esau had destroyed. The inference was encouraging to the Hebrews, that if these terrific men had been conquered by others, the Canaanites might be conquered also. Deuteronomy 2:20 . Zamzummims; that is, strong and mighty ones, flagitiously wicked. Heathen testimonies agree with Moses, as to the crimes of the ancient... read more

Many and tall are the Anakims. ] And if God cast out those Emims, or terrible ones, before the Moabites, will he not much more cast out these Anakims before the Israelites?
