31 'And we turn, and go up the way to Bashan, and Og king of Bashan cometh out to meet us, he and all his people, to battle, 'to' Edrei. 2 'And Jehovah saith unto me, Fear him not, for into thy hand I have given him, and all his people, and his land, and thou hast done to him as thou hast done to Sihon king of the Amorite who is dwelling in Heshbon. 3 'And Jehovah our God giveth into our hands also Og king of Bashan, and all his people, and we smite him till there hath not been left to him a remnant; 4 and we capture all his cities at that time, there hath not been a city which we have not taken from them, sixty cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan. 5 All these 'are' cities fenced with high walls, two-leaved doors and bar, apart from cities of villages very many; 6 and we devote them, as we have done to Sihon king of Heshbon, devoting every city, men, the women, and the infants; 7 and all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, we have spoiled for ourselves.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Deuteronomy 3:1-7
Commentary on Deuteronomy 3:1-11
(Read Deuteronomy 3:1-11)
1-11 Og was very powerful, but he did not take warning by the ruin of Sihon, and desire conditions of peace. He trusted his own strength, and so was hardened to his destruction. Those not awakened by the judgments of God on others, ripen for the like judgments on themselves.
