Números 21:32 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 21:32

And Moses sent to spy out Jaazer
Or Jazer, as it is called in ( Isaiah 16:9 ) ( Jeremiah 48:32 ) , another city that belonged to the Amorites, and which they had taken from the Moabites; and which came into the hands of the latter again, after the captivity of the ten tribes, as appears from the above places; according to Jerom ^F19, it was fifteen miles distant from Heshbon:

and they took the villages thereof;
not the spies, as Jarchi, but the Israelites under Moses; who upon the return of the spies, and the report they made, marched towards it, and took it, and all the towns and villages round about it; for it seems to have been a principal city:

and drove out the Amorites that were there;
that dwelt there, and were in possession of it; otherwise they would not have attacked it, had it, and its villages, been in the hands of the Moabites.

Números 21:32 In-Context

30 Nós os asseteamos; Hesbom está destruída até Dibom, e os assolamos até Nofá, que se estende até Medeba.

31 Assim habitou Israel na terra dos amorreus.

32 Depois Moisés mandou espiar a Jazer, e tomaram as suas aldeias e expulsaram os amorreus que ali estavam.

33 Então viraram-se, e subiram pelo caminho de Basã. E Ogue, rei de Basã, saiu-lhes ao encontro, ele e todo o seu povo, para lhes dar batalha em Edrei.

34 Disse, pois, o Senhor a Moisés: Não o temas, porque eu to entreguei na mão, a ele, a todo o seu povo, e � sua terra; e far-lhe-ás como fizeste a Siom, rei dos amorreus, que habitava em Hesbom.
