When you reached this place
This phrase marks a significant moment in the journey of the Israelites. The Hebrew root for "reached" is "בּוֹא" (bo), which means to come or to enter. This word signifies not just a physical arrival but a spiritual and covenantal milestone. The Israelites have journeyed through the wilderness, guided by God, and now stand on the brink of entering the Promised Land. This moment is a culmination of God's promises and faithfulness, reminding believers of the importance of perseverance and trust in God's timing.

Sihon king of Heshbon
Sihon was an Amorite king whose territory lay east of the Jordan River. The mention of Sihon highlights the historical and military challenges faced by the Israelites. The archaeological evidence of Heshbon, a significant city-state, underscores the reality of these biblical events. Sihon's defeat is a testament to God's power and provision, encouraging believers to rely on divine strength in overcoming obstacles.

and Og king of Bashan
Og, another formidable king, ruled over Bashan, a region known for its fortified cities and giants. The Hebrew name "עֹג" (Og) is associated with strength and might. The defeat of Og symbolizes God's ability to conquer even the most daunting adversaries. This victory serves as a reminder of God's sovereignty and the assurance that no challenge is too great for those who trust in Him.

came out against us for battle
This phrase indicates the proactive aggression of these kings against the Israelites. The Hebrew root "יָצָא" (yatsa) for "came out" suggests a deliberate and hostile action. The Israelites faced real threats, yet God's intervention turned potential defeat into victory. This narrative encourages believers to stand firm in faith, knowing that God fights on behalf of His people.

and we defeated them
The victory over Sihon and Og is attributed to divine intervention. The Hebrew root "נָכָה" (nakah) for "defeated" implies a decisive and complete victory. This triumph is not just a military success but a spiritual affirmation of God's promises. It serves as a powerful reminder that with God, victory is assured, inspiring believers to trust in His unfailing power and guidance.
