Deuteronomy 3:6

_AND WE UTTERLY DESTROYED THEM, AS WE DID UNTO SIHON KING OF HESHBON, UTTERLY DESTROYING THE MEN, WOMEN, AND CHILDREN, OF EVERY CITY._ We utterly destroyed them. It was a war of extermination: all classes of people were put to the sword, and nothing was saved but the cattle, of which an immense amount fell as spoil into the hands of the conquerors.

Not the cities, but the inhabitants of them: AS WE DID TO SIHON KING OF HESHBON; they did not destroy his cities, for they took them and dwelt in them; but the people that lived there, as follows here: UTTERLY DESTROYING THE MEN, WOMEN, AND CHILDREN, OF EVERY CITY; see Deuteronomy 2:34....

Joshua in the place of Moses (Deuteronomy 3:21) In obedience to the word of the Lord, they went to battle against Og, the king of Bashan. Obedience to the Lord and its results and blessing are the marks of the second and third Chapter s of Deuteronomy, while the first chapter shows disobedience and its fruit.

Archaeological research has proven the existence of strong and fortified cities in that territory, the ruins of which may still be seen. The

CONQUEST OF OG, KING OF BASHAN (Deuteronomy 3:1-11) Then we turned, and went up the way to Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, unto battle at Edrei. 2 and Jehovah said unto me, Fear him not; for I have delivered him, and all his people, and his land, into thy hand; and thou shalt do unto him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon. 3 So Jehovah our God delivered into our hand Og also, the king of Bashan, and all his people; and we smote him until none was left to him remaining. 4 And we took all his cities at that time; there was not a city which we took not from them; threescore cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan. 5 All these were cities fortified with high walls, gates, and bars; besides the unwalled towns a great many. 6 And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of
