| Deuteronomy 2:24 | Arise ye, and pass the torrent Arnon: *behold I have delivered into thy hand Sehon, king of Hesebon, the Amorrhite, and begin thou to possess his land, and make war against him. | Year of the World 2553. Arise. God did not forbid Moses to ask for leave to pass through the land quietly, as the latter did; (ver. 26.) but he gives him to understand that his demand will be rejected with disdain, and he is at liberty to attack this insolent king, and thus to commence his conquests. |
