Deuteronomy 2:30
KJV 30 But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him: for the LORD thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as appeareth this day.
JuliaSmith 30 And Sihon king of Heshbon was not willing for us to pass by him, for Jehovah thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart strong in order to give him into thy hand as this day.
These are my thoughts.
Sometimes the Lord makes things seem impossible because this shows more of His power.

We are to be like Christ for world to know Him by us.

Deuteronomy 2:34
KJV 34 And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed the men, and the women, and the little ones, of every city, we left none to remain:
JuliaSmith 34 And we shall take all his cities in that time, and we shall exterminate every city of men and women and the little ones; we left none to escape.
These are my thoughts.
They did what the Lord wanted and did not let what they felt keep them from keeping God’s word; we are to keep God’s word regardless of what emotions we have.

Deuteronomy 2:35
KJV 35 Only the cattle we took for a prey unto ourselves, and the spoil of the cities which we took.
JuliaSmith 35 Only the cattle we plundered for ourselves, and the spoil of the cities which we took.
These are my thoughts.
They took what the Lord allowed them to, we also should take what the Lord has to bless us with, and we should not feel bad about the blessings He gives us.

Deuteronomy 2:36
KJV 36 From Aroer, which is by the brink of the river of Arnon, and from the city that is by the river, even unto Gilead, there was not one city too strong for us: the LORD our God delivered all unto us:
JuliaSmith 36 From Aroer which is upon the lip of the torrent Arnon, and the city which is by the torrent, and even to Gilead, not a city which was high above us: Jehovah our God gave all before us.
These are my thoughts.
The Lord was on their side and nothing could defeat them, this is the way we as Christians should be even when things bring us down nothing should defeat us.

Deuteronomy 2:37 KJV 37 Only unto the land of the children of Ammon thou camest not, nor unto any place of the river Jabbok, nor unto the cities in the mountains, nor unto whatsoever the LORD our God forbade us. JuliaSmith 37 Only to the land of the sons of Ammon thou camest not near, all the land of the torrent Jabbok and the cities of the mountain: all which Jehovah our God commanded us.
These are my thoughts. We need to follow God’s commands because this shows His is our leader.
