Deuteronomio 2:11

Listen to Deuteronomio 2:11
11 Ed erano anch’essi riputati giganti, come gli Anachiti; e i Moabiti li chiamavano Emei.

Deuteronomio 2:11 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 2:11

Which also were accounted giants, as the Anakims
Because of their bulky size and tall stature; or,

``the Rephaim were they accounted, even they as the Anakims;''

they were reckoned Rephaim, a name for giants in early times, even as the Anakims were; see ( Genesis 14:5 )

but the Moabites called them Emims;
to distinguish them from the Rephaim; so that it seems this name of Emims was not originally their name, but they are called so by a prolepsis, or anticipation, in ( Genesis 14:5 ) since they had it from the Moabites, a people of a later date.

Deuteronomio 2:11 In-Context

9 E il Signore mi disse: Non nimicare i Moabiti, e non mover loro guerra; perciocchè io non ti darò nulla del lor paese a possedere; conciossiachè io abbia dato Ar per eredità a’ figliuoli di Lot.
10 Già abitavano quel paese gli Emei, gente grande, possente, e d’alta statura, come gli Anachiti.
11 Ed erano anch’essi riputati giganti, come gli Anachiti; e i Moabiti li chiamavano Emei.
12 E in Seir già abitavano gli Horei; ma i figliuoli di Esaù li cacciarono, e li distrussero d’innanzi a loro, e abitarono in luogo loro; come ha fatto Israele nel paese della sua eredità, che il Signore gli ha dato.
13 Ora levatevi, passate il torrente di Zered. E noi passammo il torrente di Zered.
