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 Sihon, Heshbon's king, wasn't willing to let us pass through his land because the LORD your God had made his spirit hard and his heart inflexible so that God could hand him over to you, which is exactly how it happened.

31 The LORD said to me: Look! Right now I'm laying Sihon and his land before you. It's time to take possession of his land!

32 Sihon and all his forces came out to meet us in battle at Jahaz.

33 But the LORD our God gave him to us. We struck him down, along with his sons, and all his forces.

34 At that time, we captured all of Sihon's cities, and we placed every town—men, women, and children—under the ban. We left no survivors.
