The phrase centers attention on God’s covenant name (“the LORD”) and His relationship to Israel (“our God”), echoing Exodus 14:14 and Deuteronomy 1:30, where the Lord fights for His people. - By invoking divine authorship of the battle, Moses emphasizes that military success is not self-generated (Psalm 20:7). - This wording also anticipates later calls to trust God in conquest (Joshua 1:9). also delivered - The word “also” links this battle to earlier triumphs over Sihon (Deuteronomy 2:33). God’s deliverance is consistent and cumulative. - “Delivered” underscores that Og was handed over, much like Pharaoh’s army at the Red Sea (Exodus 15:4), reinforcing that God controls outcomes. - Such delivery fulfills God’s promise in Genesis 15:18-21 that Israel would possess lands of mighty nations. Og king of Bashan - Og ruled a region famed for fortified cities and giant warriors (Deuteronomy 3:11; Joshua 12:4). To defeat such a formidable king magnified God’s power (Psalm 135:10-11). - Bashan’s fertility and strongholds meant that conquering it provided both strategic high ground and rich pasture (Amos 4:1), displaying God’s provision. and his whole army - The totality (“whole army”) signals comprehensive victory, guarding Israel from future counterattacks (Joshua 11:8). - God’s pattern of eliminating threats wholly (Deuteronomy 7:2) prevents syncretism and preserves covenant purity (Numbers 33:55-56). into our hands - This idiom pictures God placing the enemy like an object to be grasped (Judges 7:14). - “Our hands” affirms human participation: Israel must wield swords, yet the outcome is secured by God (Psalm 144:1-2). - It models cooperative obedience—faith expressed through action (James 2:22, applied retroactively). We struck them down - Israel acted decisively, mirroring God’s earlier command in Deuteronomy 2:24. - Obedience without hesitation brings blessing (1 Samuel 15:22-23 contrasts Saul’s partial compliance). - The victory showcases righteous judgment against entrenched wickedness (Genesis 15:16). until no survivor was left - Total destruction, though sobering, fulfilled God’s directive to remove corrupting influences (Deuteronomy 20:16-18). - It prefigures final judgment, where sin is eradicated, and foreshadows the complete triumph of Christ over evil (Revelation 19:11-21). - The thoroughness of the victory reassures Israel that God’s promises are irrevocable (Joshua 21:45). summary Deuteronomy 3:3 records a decisive moment where God personally hands over a seemingly invincible foe to Israel. Each phrase highlights God’s sovereign initiative, Israel’s required obedience, and the complete nature of divine judgment. The verse reassures believers that no power—however intimidating—can withstand the Lord who fights for His people and fulfills every promise.
