SEV Biblia, Chapter 1:4
después que hirió a Sehón rey de los amorreos, que habitaba en Hesbón, y a Og rey de Basán, que habitaba en Astarot en Edrei;
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 4. After he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt in Heshbon , etc.] Either Moses, speaking of himself in the third person, or rather the Lord, to whom Moses ascribes the victory; of this king, and his palace, and the slaughter of him, (see Numbers 21:24-26), and Og the king of Bashan , which dwelt at Ashtaroth in Edrei; or near Edrei; for Edrei was not the name of a country, in which Ashtaroth was, but of a city at some distance from it, about six miles, as Jerom says f7 ; hither Og came from Ashtaroth his palace to fight with Israel, and where he was slain, (see Numbers 21:33). Ashtaroth was an ancient city formerly called Ashtaroth Karnaim, and was the seat of the Rephaim, or giants, from whom Og sprung, (See Gill on “ Genesis 14:5”), see also ( Deuteronomy 3:11). Jerom says in his time there were two castles in Batanea (or Bashan) called by this name, nine miles distant from one another, between Adara (the same with Edrei) and Abila; and in another place he says Carnaim Ashtaroth is now a large village in a corner of Batanea, and is called Carnea, beyond the plains of Jordan; and it is a tradition that there was the house of Job.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-8 - Moses spake to the people all the Lord had given him in commandment Horeb was but eleven days distant from Kadesh-barnea. This was to remind them that their own bad conduct had occasioned their tediou wanderings; that they might the more readily understand the advantage of obedience. They must now go forward. Though God brings his people into trouble and affliction, he knows when they have been tried lon enough. When God commands us to go forward in our Christian course, he sets the heavenly Canaan before us for our encouragement.
