and went out against Israel in the wilderness and he came to Jahaz and fought against Israel and Israel smote him with the edge of the sword and possessed his land from Arnon to Jabbok even unto the children of Ammon for the border of the children of Ammon was strong and Israel took all the cities and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites in Heshbon and all the villages thereof for Heshbon was the city of Sihon king of the Amorites who had fought against the former king of Moab and taken all his land out of his hand even unto Arnon wherefore They that speak in Proverbs say, come to Heshbon, let the city of Sihon be built and prepared, for there's a fire gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon, hath consumed all of Moab, and the lords of the high places are none.

Grace NooweGUEST
Verse 15 reads for us, "And Moses gave an inheritance to the tribe of the people of Reuben, according to their clans." Moses did.
Grace NooweGUEST
Reuben's inheritance, what is it? It's an estate, and we read in those verses in summary, Reuben's inheritance was east of the Jordan.
Grace NooweGUEST
It was stretching from Aroer and the Arnon Valley through the Medeba plateau, and including the cities such as Heshbon, Dibon, Beth-Baal, and the place of the former kingdom of Sihon, whom Moses had defeated.
Grace NooweGUEST
With the Jordan forming its western boundary.
Chuck MisslerHOST
There is an unusual book alluded to in the Scripture.
Chuck MisslerHOST
In Numbers 21, verse 14, it says, Wherefore it is said in the book of the wars of the Lord, what he did in the Red Sea and in the brooks of Arnon, and it goes on to make, book of the wars.
Chuck MisslerHOST
There's apparently somewhere, I don't know if anyone has a copy, but there's somewhere, there's a book of the wars of the Lord.
Chuck MisslerHOST
Now, I'm fond of pointing out a specific case where he fought in ways that many people don't realize.
Albert MohlerHOST
Beyond the Jordan eastward is Moses, the servant of the Lord, gave them.
Albert MohlerHOST
From Aror, which is on the edge of the valley of Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the table land of Medeba as far as Debon.
Albert MohlerHOST
And all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon as far as the boundary of the Ammonites, and Gilead, and the region of the Geshurites, and Makathites, and all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan to Salikot.
Albert MohlerHOST
Now, some of these places will become very familiar to us in later biblical history.
Albert MohlerHOST
And so, again, in detail, we're given all this in detail so we'll understand everything's tied up and... exactly as the Lord would have it to be.
Albert MohlerHOST
In verse 15, and Moses gave an inheritance to the tribe of the people of Reuben according to their clans.
Albert MohlerHOST
So their territory was Aror, which is on the edge of the valley of Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the table land by Medeba, with Heshbon and all its cities that are in the table land, Debon and Bamoth Baal, and Beth Baal Maon, and Jahaz, and Kadimoth, and Emepaphath, and Kiriathim, and Sibmah, and Zereshahar on the hill of the valley.
Albert MohlerHOST
and Beth Peor, again, some of these names are familiar to us, and the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth Jeshimoth, that is, all the cities of the table land, and all the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses defeated with the leaders of Midian, Evai, and Rechim, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the princes of Sihon who lived in the land.

From there, they pulled up their tent pegs and journeyed.
Elle Grover FricksHOST
They camped on the crossing of the Arnon.
Elle Grover FricksHOST
I will shout joyously, which is in the desert that goes from the departure of the border of the Amori, which means Westerners.
Elle Grover FricksHOST
For the Arnon is the border of Moab between Moab and Amori.
Elle Grover FricksHOST
Therefore, it is said in the scroll of the wars of Yahweh and the Wahev in the whirlwind and the wadis of the Arnon and the ravine of the wadis that stretch out to the dwelling of Ar, which means wakened watcher that leans upon the border of Moab from their bare cistern.
Elle Grover FricksHOST
The cistern is where Yahweh said to Moshe, scrape together the people.
Elle Grover FricksHOST
Oh, that I might give them water.
Elle Grover FricksHOST
Yisrael sat in all the cities of the Emori in Cheshbon, the city of Sihon, who was the king of the Emori.
