Deuteronomy 3
3:1 Then we
turned, and went up the way to Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan
a
came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
(
a) Therefore aside from the commandment of the
Lord, they had just cause to fight against him.
3:5
All these cities [were] fenced with high walls, gates, and bars; beside
b
unwalled towns a great many.
(
b) As villages and small towns.
3:6 And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto
Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying the men,
c
women, and children, of every city.
(
c) Because this was God's appointment,
therefore it may not be judged cruel.
3:11
For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of giants; behold, his
d
bedstead [was] a bedstead of iron; [is] it not in Rabbath of the children of
Ammon? nine cubits [was] the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it,
after the cubit of a man.
(
d) The more terrible this giant was, the greater
reason they had to glorify God for the victory.
3:14 Jair
the son of Manasseh took all the country of Argob unto the coasts of Geshuri and
Maachathi; and called them after his own name, Bashanhavothjair, unto
e
this day.
(
e) Meaning, when he wrote this history.
3:16 And unto the Reubenites
and unto the Gadites I gave from Gilead even unto the river Arnon half the
valley, and the border even unto the river
f
Jabbok, [which is] the border of the children of Ammon;
(
f) Which separates the Ammonites from the
Amorites.
3:18 And I commanded
g
you at that time, saying, The LORD your God hath given you this land to possess
it: ye shall pass over armed before your brethren the children of Israel, all
[that are] meet for the war.
(
g) That is, the Reubenites, Gadites, and half
Manasseh, as in (
Numbers
32:32).
3:21 And I
commanded Joshua at that time, saying, Thine eyes have seen all that the
h
LORD your God hath done unto these two kings: so shall the LORD do unto all the
kingdoms whither thou passest.
(
h) So that the victories did not come by your
own wisdom, strength or multitude.
3:24 O
Lord GOD, thou hast begun to shew thy servant thy greatness, and thy mighty
hand: for what God [is there] in heaven or in earth, that can
i
do according to thy works, and according to thy might?
(
i) He speaks according to the common and corrupt
speech of those who attribute power to idols that only belongs to God.
3:25 I pray thee, let me go over, and see the good
land that [is] beyond Jordan, that goodly
k
mountain, and Lebanon.
(
k) He means Zion, where the Temple should be
built, and God honoured.
3:27 Get thee up into the top
of Pisgah, and
l lift up thine eyes
westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and behold [it] with thine
eyes: for thou shalt not go over this Jordan.
(
l) As before he saw by the spirits of prophecy
the good mountain which was Zion: so here his eyes were lifted up above the
order of nature to behold all the plentiful land of Canaan.
