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.

Wicked men do their utmost to secure themselves and their possessions…Read the comment
