There shall be no man able to stand before you
Meaning not a single man, such an one as Og, or any of the sons
of Anak, the giants; because it could never be thought, imagined,
or feared, that one man only should be able to stand against
600,000 fighting men, but any people or nation, though greater
and mightier than they:
for the Lord your God shall lay the fear of you, and the
dread of you,
upon all the land that ye shall tread upon:
that is, upon all the land of Canaan, and the inhabitants of it;
who should hear what wonderful things had been done for them in
Egypt, and at the Red sea, and in the wilderness; and what they
had done to Sihon and Og, and to their countries, and which
accordingly was fulfilled, ( Joshua
2:9-11 )
as he hath said unto you;
had promised them, ( Deuteronomy
2:25 ) and which was prophesied of in the prophetic song at
the Red sea; see ( Exodus
15:14-16 ) .
