經文：申命記 Deuteronomy 2:24-3:7 講員：許逸程牧師 Rev. Mike Hsu

2 Deuteronomy 2:24-3:7 24 “Set out now and cross the Arnon Gorge. See, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his country. Begin to take possession of it and engage him in battle. 25 This very day I will begin to put the terror and fear of you on all the nations under heaven. They will hear reports of you and will tremble and be in anguish because of you.” 26 From the Desert of Kedemoth I sent messengers to Sihon king of Heshbon offering peace and saying, 27 “Let us pass through your country. We will stay on the main road; we will not turn aside to the right or to the left. 28 Sell us food to eat and water to drink for their price in silver. Only let us pass through on foot— 29 as the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir, and the Moabites, who live in Ar, did for us—until we cross the Jordan into the land the Lord our God is giving us.” 30 But Sihon king of Heshbon refused to let us pass through. For the Lord your God had made his spirit stubborn and his heart obstinate in order to give him into your hands, as he has now done. 31 The Lord said to me, “See, I have begun to deliver Sihon and his country over to you. Now begin to conquer and possess his land.”

3 Deuteronomy 2:24-3:7 32 When Sihon and all his army came out to meet us in battle at Jahaz, 33 the Lord our God delivered him over to us and we struck him down, together with his sons and his whole army. 34 At that time we took all his towns and completely destroyed[c] them—men, women and children. We left no survivors. 35 But the livestock and the plunder from the towns we had captured we carried off for ourselves. 36 From Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Gorge, and from the town in the gorge, even as far as Gilead, not one town was too strong for us. The Lord our God gave us all of them. 37 But in accordance with the command of the Lord our God, you did not encroach on any of the land of the Ammonites, neither the land along the course of the Jabbok nor that around the towns in the hills.

4 Deuteronomy 2:24-3:7 Chapter 3
Next we turned and went up along the road toward Bashan, and Og king of Bashan with his whole army marched out to meet us in battle at Edrei. 2 The Lord said to me, “Do not be afraid of him, for I have delivered him into your hands, along with his whole army and his land. Do to him what you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon.” 3 So the Lord our God also gave into our hands Og king of Bashan and all his army. We struck them down, leaving no survivors. 4 At that time we took all his cities. There was not one of the sixty cities that we did not take from them—the whole region of Argob, Og’s kingdom in Bashan. 5 All these cities were fortified with high walls and with gates and bars, and there were also a great many unwalled villages. 6 We completely destroyed[a] them, as we had done with Sihon king of Heshbon, destroying[b] every city—men, women and children. 7 But all the livestock and the plunder from their cities we carried off for ourselves.

5 申命記 Deuteronomy 2:24-3:7 2:24 你們起來前往、過亞嫩谷、我已將亞摩利人希實本王西宏、和他的地、交在你手中、你要與他爭戰得他的地為業。 2:25 從今日起我要使天下萬民、聽見你的名聲都驚恐、懼怕、且因你發顫傷慟。2:26 我從基底莫的曠野、差遣使者去見希實本王西宏、用和睦的話說、2:27 求你容我從你的地經過、只走大道、不偏左右。 2:28 你可以賣糧給我喫、也可以賣水給我喝、只要容我步行過去． 2:29 就如住西珥的以掃子孫、和住亞珥的摩押人待我一樣、等我過了約但河、好進入耶和華我們　神所賜給我們的地。 2:30 但希實本王西宏、不容我們從他那裡經過、因為耶和華你的　神使他心中剛硬、性情頑梗、為要將他交在你手中、像今日一樣。 2:31 耶和華對我說、從此起首、我要將西宏和他的地、交給你、你要得他的地為業。2:32 那時西宏和他的眾民、出來攻擊我們、在雅雜與我們交戰。 2:33 耶和華我們的　神、將他交給我們、我們就把他和他的兒子、並他的眾民都擊殺了。2:34 我們奪了他的一切城邑、將有人煙的各城、連女人帶孩子、盡都毀滅、沒有留下一個。2:35 惟有牲畜、和所奪的各城、並其中的財物、都取為自己的掠物。2:36 從亞嫩谷邊的亞羅珥、和谷中的城、直到基列、耶和華我們的　神都交給我們了、沒有一座城高得使我們不能攻取的。2:37 惟有亞捫人之地、凡靠近雅博河的地、並山地的城邑、與耶和華我們　神所禁止我們去的地方、都沒有挨近。

6 申命記 Deuteronomy 2:24-3:7 3:1 以後我們轉回向巴珊去、巴珊王噩和他的眾民都出來、在以得來與我們交戰。 3:2 耶和華對我說、不要怕他、因我已將他和他的眾民、並他的地、都交在你手中、你要待他像從前待住希實本的亞摩利王西宏一樣。 3:3 於是耶和華我們的　神、也將巴珊王噩、和他的眾民、都交在我們手中、我們殺了他們、沒有留下一個。 3:4 那時我們奪了他所有的城、共有六十座、沒有一座城不被我們所奪、這為亞珥歌伯的全境、就是巴珊地、噩王的國。 3:5 這些城都有堅固的高牆、有門有閂．此外還有許多無城牆的鄉村。 3:6 我們將這些都毀滅了、像從前待希實本王西宏一樣、把有人煙的各城、連女人帶孩子、盡都毀滅。 3:7 惟有一切牲畜、和城中的財物、都取為自己的掠物。

11 Deuteronomy 2:24-2:31 (NIV) 24 “Set out now and cross the Arnon Gorge. See, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his country. Begin to take possession of it and engage him in battle. 25 This very day I will begin to put the terror and fear of you on all the nations under heaven. They will hear reports of you and will tremble and be in anguish because of you.” 26 From the Desert of Kedemoth I sent messengers to Sihon king of Heshbon offering peace and saying, 27 “Let us pass through your country. We will stay on the main road; we will not turn aside to the right or to the left. 28 Sell us food to eat and water to drink for their price in silver. Only let us pass through

12 Deuteronomy 2:24-2:31 (NIV) on foot— 29 as the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir, and the Moabites, who live in Ar, did for us—until we cross the Jordan into the land the Lord our God is giving us.” 30 But Sihon king of Heshbon refused to let us pass through. For the Lord your God had made his spirit stubborn and his heart obstinate in order to give him into your hands, as he has now done. 31 The Lord said to me, “See, I have begun to deliver Sihon and his country over to you. Now begin to conquer and possess his land.”

13 The victory is won before the battle starts

14 Even Though the Victory Is Won, It Requires Obedience to Possess

16 Deuteronomy 2:32-37 (NIV) When Sihon and all his army came out to meet us in battle at Jahaz, 33 the Lord our God delivered him over to us and we struck him down, together with his sons and his whole army. 34 At that time we took all his towns and completely destroyed them—men, women and children. We left no survivors. 35 But the livestock and the plunder from the towns we had captured we carried off for ourselves. 36 From Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Gorge, and from the town in the gorge, even as far as Gilead, not one town was too strong for us. The Lord our God gave us all of them. 37 But in accordance with the command of the Lord our God, you did not encroach on any of the land of the Ammonites, neither the land along the course of the Jabbok nor that around the towns in the hills.

17 Two Perspectives Deuteronomy 1:28
“Where can we go? Our brothers have made our hearts melt in fear. They say, ‘The people are stronger and taller than we are; the cities are large, with walls up to the sky. We even saw the Anakites there.’” Deuteronomy 2:36 From Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Gorge, and from the town in the gorge, even as far as Gilead, not one town was too strong for us. The Lord our God gave us all of them.

19 Deuteronomy 3:1-7 (NIV) Next we turned and went up along the road toward Bashan, and Og king of Bashan with his whole army marched out to meet us in battle at Edrei. 2 The Lord said to me, “Do not be afraid of him, for I have delivered him into your hands, along with his whole army and his land. Do to him what you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon.” 3 So the Lord our God also gave into our hands Og king of Bashan and all his army. We struck them down, leaving no survivors. 4 At that time we took all his cities. There was not one of the sixty cities that we did not take from them—the whole region of Argob, Og’s kingdom in Bashan. 5 All these

20 Deuteronomy 3:1-7 (NIV) cities were fortified with high walls and with gates and bars, and there were also a great many unwalled villages. 6 We completely destroyed them, as we had done with Sihon king of Heshbon, destroying every city—men, women and children. 7 But all the livestock and the plunder from their cities we carried off for ourselves.
