Numberi 21:25 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 21:25

And Israel took all these cities
Which lay between the rivers Arnon and Jabbok; their particular names may be seen in ( Numbers 32:3 Numbers 32:34-38 ) ,

and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites;
being given to the Reubenites and Gadites, who inhabited them, as their possession and inheritance, ( Numbers 32:2 Numbers 32:33 ) ( Deuteronomy 3:12 Deuteronomy 3:16 ) :

in Heshbon, and in all the villages thereof;

Numberi 21:25 In-Context

23 Doch Sihon liet Israel niet toe, door zijn landpale te trekken; maar Sihon vergaderde al zijn volk, en hij ging uit, Israel tegemoet, naar de woestijn, en hij kwam te Jahza, en streed tegen Israel;
24 Maar Israel sloeg hem met de scherpte des zwaards, en nam zijn land in erfelijke bezitting, van de Arnon af tot de Jabbok toe, tot aan de kinderen Ammons; want de landpale der kinderen Ammons was vast.
25 Alzo nam Israel al deze steden in; en Israel woonde in al de steden der Amorieten, te Hesbon, en in al haar onderhorige plaatsen.
26 Want Hesbon was de stad van Sihon, den koning der Amorieten; en hij had gestreden tegen den vorigen koning der Moabieten, en hij had al zijn land uit zijn hand genomen, tot aan de Arnon.
27 Daarom zeggen zij, die spreekwoorden gebruiken: Komt tot Hesbon; men bouwe en bevestige de stad van Sihon!
