SEV Biblia, Chapter 2:29
como lo hicieron conmigo los hijos de Esaú que habitaban en Seir, y los moabitas que habitan en Ar; hasta que pase el Jordán a la tierra que nos da el SEÑOR nuestro Dios.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 2:29
Verse 29. As the children of Esau which dwell in Seir] See the note on "Num. xx. 21".
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 29. As the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, and the Moabites which dwell in Ar, did unto me , etc.] Which respects, as Jarchi observes, not the affair of passing through their land requested, for neither of them granted that, but buying food and drink; for though the Edomites at first seem not to have granted that, yet afterwards they did. The mountain of Seir, and the city Ar, are put for the whole countries of Edom and Moab: until I shall pass over Jordan into the land which the Lord our God giveth us ; this is observed to remove any suspicion or jealousy of their seizing his country, and taking possession of it, and dwelling in it; since they only proposed to pass through it on their journey to the land of Canaan, which lay on the other side Jordan, over which they must pass in order to possess it, which they had a right unto by the gift of God.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 24-37 - God tried his people, by forbidding them to meddle with the ric countries of Moab and Ammon. He gives them possession of the country of the Amorites. If we keep from what God forbids, we shall not lose by our obedience. The earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof; and he gives it to whom he pleases; but when there is no express direction none can plead his grant for such proceedings. Though God assured the Israelites that the land should be their own, yet they must conten with the enemy. What God gives we must endeavour to get. What a ne world did Israel now come into! Much more joyful will the change be which holy souls will experience, when they remove out of the wilderness of this world to the better country, that is, the heavenly to the city that has foundations. Let us, by reflecting upon God' dealings with his people Israel, be led to meditate upon our year spent in vanity, through our transgressions. But happy are those who Jesus has delivered from the wrath to come. To whom he hath given the earnest of his Spirit in their hearts. Their inheritance cannot be affected by revolutions of kingdoms, or changes in earthly possessions __________________________________________________________________
