Deuteronomy 2:32 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 2:32

Then Sihon came out against us
Perceiving they were upon their march towards his land or into it, he gathered all his people and went out of Heshbon their capital city, where he resided:

he and all his people, to fight at Jahaz;
a city which he had taken from the king of Moab, and which in later times, after the captivity of the ten tribes, came into their hands again, ( Isaiah 15:4 ) ( Jeremiah 48:21 ) , (See Gill on Numbers 21:21).

Deuteronomy 2:32 In-Context

30 But King Sihon of Heshbon was not willing to let us pass through, for the Lord your God had hardened his spirit and made his heart defiant in order to hand him over to you, as he has now done.

31 The Lord said to me, "See, I have begun to give Sihon and his land over to you. Begin now to take possession of his land."

32 So when Sihon came out against us, he and all his people for battle at Jahaz,

33 the Lord our God gave him over to us; and we struck him down, along with his offspring and all his people.

34 At that time we captured all his towns, and in each town we utterly destroyed men, women, and children. We left not a single survivor.
