Listen to 2 Reis 3:24

2 Reis 3:24 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 3:24

And when they came to the camp of Israel
Not in an orderly regular manner, in rank and file, as an army should march, but in a confused manner, everyone striving who should get thither first, and have the largest share of the booty:

the Israelites rose up and smote the Moabites, so that they fled before
them;
being prepared for them, they fell upon them sword in hand, and soon obliged them to flee:

but they went forward smiting the Moabites, even in their country;
they pursued them closely, and slew them as they fled, and followed them not only to their borders, but into their own country: though Schultens {m}, from the use of the word (hbn) in the Arabic language, renders the passage, "and they blunted their swords in it (in that slaughter), even by smiting the Moabites".

2 Reis 3:24 In-Context

22 Levantaram-se os moabitas de madrugada e, resplandecendo o sol sobre as águas, viram diante de si as águas vermelhas como sangue;
23 e disseram: Isto Ă© sangue; certamente os reis pelejaram entre si e se mataram um ao outro! Agora, pois, ďż˝ presa, moabitas!
24 Quando, porém, chegaram ao arraial de Israel, os israelitas se levantaram, e bateram os moabitas, os quais fugiram diante deles; e ainda entraram na terra, ferindo ali também os moabitas.
25 E arrasaram as cidades; e cada um deles lançou pedras em todos os bons campos, entulhando-os; taparam todas as fontes d'água, e cortaram todas as boas árvores; somente a Quir-Haresete deixaram ficar as pedras; contudo os fundeiros a cercaram e a feriram.
26 Vendo o rei dos moabitas que a peleja prevalecia contra ele, tomou consigo setecentos homens que arrancavam da espada, para romperem contra o rei de Edom; porém não puderam.
