Context of Numbers 21:34

32After Moses sent spies to Jazer, Israel captured its surrounding villages and drove out the Amorites who were there. 33Then they turned and went up the road to Bashan, and King Og of Bashan came out against them with his whole army to do battle at Edrei. But the Lord said to Moses, “Do not fear him, for I have handed him over to you along with his whole army and his land. Do to him as you did to King Sihon of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon.” 35So they struck him, his sons, and his whole army until no one was left, and they took possession of his land.

Commentaries on Numbers 21:34

• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 21-35Verses 21-35 Sihon went with his forces against Israel, out of his own borders, without provocation, and so ran upon his own ruin. The enemies of God's church often perish by the counsels they think most wisely taken. Og, king of Bashan, instead of being warned by the fate of his neighbours, to make peace with Israel, makes war with them, which proves in like manner his destruction. Wicked men do their utmost to secure themselves and their possessions…Read the comment
• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 33-35Ancient Bashan was east of the Sea of Galilee. King Og, like Sihon, was an Amorite (see study note on 21:13). Deuteronomy 3:1–11 details the story of Israel defeating Og.Read the comment
• Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 34-3534-35. The Lord said unto Moses, Fear him not--a necessary encouragement, for Og's gigantic stature (De 3:11) was calculated to inspire terror. He and all his were put to the sword.Read the comment
