Deuteronomio 2:19

19 Cuando lleguen a la frontera de los amonitas, no los ataquen ni los provoquen a la guerra, porque no les daré a ustedes ninguna porción de su territorio. Esa tierra se la he dado por herencia a los descendientes de Lot”.

Deuteronomio 2:19 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 2:19

And when thou comest nigh over against the children of Ammon,
&c.] Who dwelt near the Moabites, and were brethren, both descending from Lot, ( Genesis 19:37 Genesis 19:38 )

distress them not, nor meddle with them:
lay no siege to any of their cities, nor provoke them to war, nor engage in battle with them:

for I will not give thee of the land of the children of Ammon any
possession;
that is, any part of it which was now in their hands; otherwise half their land was given to the tribe of Gad; but then that was what Sihon king of the Amorites had taken from them, and which Israel retook from him, and so possessed it not as the land of the Ammonites, but of the Amorites, one of the seven nations, whose land they were to inherit; see ( Joshua 13:25 ) ( Judges 11:13-23 ) ,

because I have given it unto the children of Lot for a possession;
the Ammonites were the children of Lot by his second daughter, ( Genesis 19:38 ) .

Deuteronomio 2:19 In-Context

17 el SEÑOR me dijo:
18 “Hoy van a cruzar la frontera de Moab por la ciudad de Ar.
19 Cuando lleguen a la frontera de los amonitas, no los ataquen ni los provoquen a la guerra, porque no les daré a ustedes ninguna porción de su territorio. Esa tierra se la he dado por herencia a los descendientes de Lot”.
20 Hace mucho tiempo, a esta región se le consideró tierra de gigantes, porque antiguamente ellos vivían allí. Los amonitas los llamaban zamzumitas.
21 Eran fuertes y numerosos, y tan altos como los anaquitas, pero el SEÑOR los destruyó por medio de los amonitas, quienes luego de desalojarlos se establecieron en su lugar.
