Deuteronomy 2:27 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 21:27

Let me pass through thy land (See Gill on Numbers 21:22),

I will go along by the highway;
the king's highway, as in the place referred to, the public road:

I will neither turn to the right hand nor to the left;
to go into his fields and vineyards, and gather the fruit, or tread down the corn and vines, or do any manner of mischief to them; see the above place.

Deuteronomy 2:27 In-Context

25 Today I will start putting the fear and dread of you into all the peoples under heaven, so that the mere mention of your name will make them quake and tremble before you.'
26 "I sent envoys from the K'demot Desert to Sichon king of Heshbon with a peaceable message,
27 'Let me pass through your land. I will keep to the road, turning neither right nor left.
28 You will sell me food to eat for money and give me water to drink for money. I only want to pass through.
29 Do as the people of 'Esav living in Se'ir and the Mo'avim living in 'Ar did with me, until I cross the Yarden into the land ADONAI our God is giving us.'
