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 King Sihon of Heshbon wouldn't allow us to pass through. The LORD your God made him stubborn and overconfident in order to hand him over to you, as he has now done.

31 The LORD said to me, "I have begun to give you Sihon and his country. Go ahead! Take possession of his land."

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

33 The LORD our God gave Sihon to us, and we defeated him, his sons, and all his troops.

34 At that time we captured all his cities and claimed them for God by destroying men, women, and children. There were no survivors.
