SEV Biblia, Chapter 2:16
Y aconteció que cuando todos los hombres de guerra fueron acabados por muerte de entre el pueblo,
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 16. So it came to pass, when all the men of war were consumed , etc.] By wasting diseases and judgments of one kind or another: and dead from among the people ; the rising and surviving generation.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 8-23 - We have the origin of the Moabites, Edomites, and Ammonites. Moses als gives an instance older than any of these; the Caphtorims drove the Avims out of their country. These revolutions show what uncertai things wordly possessions are. It was so of old, and ever will be so Families decline, and from them estates are transferred to familie that increase; so little continuance is there in these things. This i recorded to encourage the children of Israel. If the providence of God has done this for Moabites and Ammonites, much more would his promis do it for Israel, his peculiar people. Cautions are given not to meddl with Moabites and Ammonites. Even wicked men must not be wronged. God gives and preserves outward blessings to wicked men; these are not the best things, he has better in store for his own children.
