Who is this
Og was the Amorite king of Bashan during the time of the Israelites' journey from Egypt to the Promised Land (Numbers 21:33; Deuteronomy 3:1). He ruled over the region of Bashan, which was known for its fertile land and fortified cities (Deuteronomy 3:4-5). Og and his army confronted the Israelites, but God delivered him into the hands of Moses and the Israelites (Numbers 21:34; Deuteronomy 3:3). The Israelites defeated Og, conquered his territory, and allocated it to the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half of Manasseh (Numbers 32:33; Deuteronomy 3:12-13; Joshua 13:30-31). Og was renowned for his great size, and his iron bedstead was mentioned as a symbol of his stature (Deuteronomy 3:11). The defeat of Og was remembered as a significant victory for the Israelites and a testament to God's power and faithfulness (Deuteronomy 31:4; Joshua 2:10; 9:10; Psalm 135:11; 136:20).
