Sihon king of the Amorites
The mention of "Sihon king of the Amorites" refers to a significant historical event in the history of Israel. Sihon was a powerful king whose territory was east of the Jordan River. The Amorites were a formidable people, and their defeat by the Israelites, as recorded in Numbers 21:21-31, was a testament to God's power and faithfulness to His promises. The Hebrew root for "Sihon" (סִיחוֹן) suggests a warrior or one who sweeps away, indicating his might and the threat he posed. This victory was a pivotal moment for Israel, symbolizing God's ability to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles.

Og king of Bashan
"Og king of Bashan" is another significant figure in Israel's conquest narrative. Og was known for his enormous stature and strength, as well as his fortified cities, as described in Deuteronomy 3:1-11. The Hebrew name "Og" (עוֹג) is associated with a round or circular shape, possibly referring to his large size or the completeness of his defeat. Bashan was a fertile and prosperous region, and its conquest demonstrated God's provision and the fulfillment of His covenant promises. The defeat of Og, like that of Sihon, underscored God's sovereignty and the assurance of His protection over His people.

and all the kings of Canaan
The phrase "and all the kings of Canaan" encapsulates the broader conquest of the Promised Land, as detailed in the book of Joshua. Canaan was a land of many city-states, each ruled by its own king. The Hebrew term for "Canaan" (כְּנַעַן) is often associated with lowlands or humility, yet it was a region of great wealth and strategic importance. The defeat of these kings was not just a military victory but a spiritual one, as it represented the triumph of God's people over paganism and idolatry. This conquest was a fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham and a testament to His faithfulness across generations. The historical and archaeological evidence of these conquests, such as the destruction layers found in ancient Canaanite cities, corroborates the biblical narrative and highlights the reality of God's intervention in history.

Verse 11. - Sihon King of the Amorites (comp. Numbers 21:24; Deuteronomy 2:33). And Og King of Bashan (see Numbers 21:35; Deuteronomy 3:3). And all the kingdoms of Canaan. Joshua destroyed thirty-one Canaanite kingdoms (Joshua 12:24).
