Geneva Study Bible - Deuteronomy 2:10

2:10 The {f} Emims dwelt therein in times past, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims;(f) Signifying that as these giants were driven out for their sins: so the wicked when their sins are ripe, cannot avoid God’s plagues. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 2:1-37

WILDERNESS WANDERINGS (vs.1-25) From Kadesh Barnea Israel had to virtually retrace their steps, going back toward the Red Sea. Believers today find similar experiences because of lack of faith. Instead of progressing in the path of obedience to God, we must go back to learn afresh what the Red Sea deliverance means, for this speaks of the judgment of sin in the flesh by means of the cross of Christ, and if we do not learn it properly as we begin our wilderness history, we shall have to... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:1-37

REVIEW OF ISRAEL ’S HISTORY A book written by Canon Bernard entitled The Progress of Doctrine in the New Testament, shows not only that the contents of its books are inspired, but their arrangement and order as well. The same might be said of the Old Testament, especially of the Pentateuch. To illustrate, the purpose of the Bible is to give the history of redemption through a special seed. In Genesis we have the election of that seed (Abraham), in Exodus their redemption, in Leviticus their... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Deuteronomy 2:1-37

Providential Lines Deuteronomy 2:0 There is a remarkable expression in the fifth verse "because." The same expression occurs in the ninth verse "because." The same word occurs in the nineteenth verse "because." Yet it is the infinite God who speaks and puts himself in the position of one who would explain to his creatures his reasons for making certain allotments. Instead of speaking as one might suppose the Eternal Majesty of the Universe to speak, he seems to place himself upon a level with... read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:9

Evidently this precept was intended to teach the people of GOD then, and through them the people of GOD in all ages, not to love the world neither the things of the world. They who are set out for Canaan, are to have no objects to allure or lead them out of the way. Sweet is that account of the Patriarchs, Hebrews 11:13-16 . read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:10-12

The Emims, means the terrible ones. The most profitable instruction to be gathered from these verses will be, I think, to remark how often places change their masters. Nations, like individuals, succeed one another in the events of life. Of all as well as one, it may be truly said, here we have no continuing city. read more

George Haydock

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:9

Moabites. They allowed the Hebrews to pass, as the Idumeans had done; (ver. 29,) but they treated them with no particular marks of affection, (chap. xxiii. 3,) nor would they suffer them to go across their country, Judges xi. 17. --- Ar is sometimes called Rabbah Moab, "the great city of the Moabites," (Josue xiii. 25,) and Areopolis. (Eusebius) read more

George Haydock

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:10

Emim signifies "the terrible," or "men of cubits or length." See Numbers xiii. 33. They had been probably ruined in the war of Chodorlahomor, (Genesis xiv. 5,) a little before the birth of Moab. (Calmet) --- But those few who remained, were sufficient to strike the beholders with terror, as they were not inferior to the other giants who were known, since the deluge, of the race of Enac, or of Rapha.

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 2:8-23

8-23 We have the origin of the Moabites, Edomites, and Ammonites. Moses also gives an instance older than any of these; the Caphtorims drove the Avims out of their country. These revolutions show what uncertain things wordly possessions are. It was so of old, and ever will be so. Families decline, and from them estates are transferred to families that increase; so little continuance is there in these things. This is recorded to encourage the children of Israel. If the providence of God has done... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Deuteronomy 2:1-15

From Kadesh to the Brook Zered v. 1. Then we turned and took our journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea, that is, in the direction toward the Red Sea, Numbers 14:25, as the Lord spake unto me; and we compassed Mount Seir many days, ever moving around in the neighborhood of this mountain range, in the Wilderness of Paran, down to the Elanitic Gulf. v. 2. And the Lord spake unto me, saying, v. 3. Ye have compassed this mountain long enough, after they had been journeying back... read more
