Deuteronomy 2:34 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 2:34

And we took all his cities at that time
As Heshbon, and others mentioned in ( Numbers 21:25 Numbers 21:30 Numbers 21:32 ) ( Numbers 32:3 Numbers 32:34-38 ) ,

and utterly destroyed the men, and the women, and the little ones
of every city, we left none to remain;
for the Amorites were one of the seven nations who were devoted to destruction, the measure of whose iniquity was now full, and therefore vengeance was taken.

Deuteronomy 2:34 In-Context

32 Then Sichon came out against us, he and all his people, to fight at Yahatz;
33 and ADONAI our God handed him over to us, so that we defeated him, his sons and all his people.
34 At that time we captured all his cities and completely destroyed every city - men, women, little ones - we left none of them.
35 As booty for ourselves we took only the cattle, along with the spoil from the cities we had captured.
36 From 'Aro'er, on the edge of the Arnon Valley, and from the city in the valley, all the way to Gil'ad, there was not one city too well fortified for us to capture -ADONAI our God gave all of them to us.
