Deuteronomy 2:33 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 2:33

And the Lord our God delivered him before us
With their lands:

and we smote him and his sons, and all his people;
with the edge of the sword; slew them all: the Cetib or textual reading is "his son", though the Keri or margin is "his sons", which we follow. So Jarchi observes, it is written "his son", because he had a son mighty as himself, he says.

Deuteronomy 2:33 In-Context

31 The Lord said to me, "See, I have begun to give Sihon and his country to you. Begin taking the land as your own."

32 Then Sihon and all his army came out and fought us at Jahaz,

33 but the Lord our God gave Sihon to us. We defeated him, his sons, and all his army.

34 We captured all his cities at that time and completely destroyed them, as well as the men, women, and children. We left no one alive.

35 But we kept the cattle and valuable things from the cities for ourselves.
