Deuteronomy 29:7 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 29:7

And when ye came unto this place
The borders of Moab, the wilderness before it, to which joined the plains they were now in; see ( Numbers 21:13 Numbers 21:20 ) ( Deuteronomy 2:26 ) ;

Sihon king of Heshbon, and Og king of Bashan, came out against us unto
battle;
not together, but one after the other, and that very quickly; as soon almost as they had fought with the one, and conquered him, the other came out against them:

and we smote them;
killed them and their armies, and the inhabitants of their countries; the history of which see in ( Numbers 21:23-35 ) .

5 and I cause you to go forty years in a wilderness; your garments have not been consumed from off you, and thy shoe hath not worn away from off thy foot;

6 bread ye have not eaten, and wine and strong drink ye have not drunk, so that ye know that I [am] Jehovah your God.

7 `And ye come in unto this place, and Sihon king of Heshbon -- also Og king of Bashan -- doth come out to meet us, to battle, and we smite them,

8 and take their land, and give it for an inheritance to the Reubenite, and to the Gadite, and to the half of the tribe of Manasseh;

9 and ye have kept the words of this covenant, and done them, so that ye cause all that ye do to prosper.
