-- detsamma som tillstaddes mig av Esaus barn, Seirs inbyggare, och av moabiterna, Ars inbyggare -- så att jag kan gå över Jordan in i det land som HERREN, vår Gud, vill giva oss.»

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

As the children: It appears to have been only the Edomites of Kadesh-barnea, south of Canaan, who denied the Israelites a passage; for those of mount Seir, now called Shera, are here expressly said to have granted it them, and this, in fact, was the very road by which they arrived at Canaan. Deuteronomy 23:3, Deuteronomy 23:4, Numbers 20:18, Judges 11:17, Judges 11:18

into the land: Deuteronomy 4:1, Deuteronomy 4:21, Deuteronomy 4:40, Deuteronomy 5:16, Deuteronomy 9:6, Deuteronomy 25:15, Exodus 20:12, Joshua 1:11-15

Reciprocal: Numbers 20:17 - General Numbers 20:21 - refused Numbers 21:15 - Ar Deuteronomy 2:6 - General Judges 18:10 - God hath

Gill's Notes on the Bible

As the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, and the Moabites which dwell in Ar, did unto me,.... 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.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Deuteronomy 2:29. As the children of Esau which dwell in Seir — Numbers 20:21.
