Números 21:2 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 21:2

And Israel vowed a vow unto the Lord
The Israelites made supplication to the Lord for help against their enemies, and that he would give them victory over them, and made promises to him:

and said, if thou wilt indeed deliver this people into my hand;
certainly and entirely deliver them, so as that a complete victory shall be obtained over them:

then will I utterly destroy their cities;
or "anathematize", or devote them to utter destruction F15; slay man and beast, burn their houses and take their goods, not for a spoil, for their own private use, but reserve them for the service of God; all which is implied in the vow made, as was done to Jericho, ( Joshua 6:21 Joshua 6:24 ) and so it is a vow, as Abendana observes, of what they would do when they came to the land of Canaan.

Números 21:2 In-Context

1 Y oyendo el cananeo, el rey de Arad, el cual habitaba al mediod铆a, que ven铆a Israel por el camino de los centinelas, pele贸 con Israel, y tom贸 de 茅l prisioneros.
2 Entonces Israel hizo voto al SE脩OR, y dijo: Si en efecto entregares a este pueblo en mi mano, yo destruir茅 sus ciudades.
3 Y el SE脩OR escuch贸 la voz de Israel, y entreg贸 al cananeo, y los destruy贸 a ellos y a sus ciudades; y llam贸 el nombre de aquel lugar Horma (destrucci贸n ).
4 Y partieron del monte de Hor, camino del mar Bermejo, para rodear la tierra de Edom; y el alma del pueblo fue angustiada en el camino.
5 Y habl贸 el pueblo contra Dios y contra Mois茅s: 驴Por qu茅 nos hiciste venir de Egipto para que muramos en este desierto? Que no hay pan, ni agua, y nuestra alma tiene fastidio de este pan tan liviano.
