Contextual Overview

1 "Then we turned and went up the road to Bashan. Og king of Bashan and all his people came out to meet us in battle. 2 But the Lord said to me, ‘Do not be afraid of him. For I have given him and all his people and his land to you. Do to him just as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites who lived at Heshbon.' 3 So the Lord our God gave us Og king of Bashan and all his people also. We destroyed them until no one was left alive. 4 And we took all his cities at that time. There was not a city which we did not take from them. We took sixty cities, the whole land of Argob, the nation of Og in Bashan. 5 All these cities were built strong, with high walls, gates and iron. There were many towns without walls also. 6 We destroyed them, as we had done to Sihon king of Heshbon. We destroyed every man, woman and child in every city. 7 But we took for ourselves all the animals and what was left in the cities. 8 So we took the land at that time from the two kings of the Amorites who were on the east side of the Jordan, from the valley of Arnon to Mount Hermon 9 (Sidonians call Hermon Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir). 10 We took all the cities of the plain and all Gilead and all Bashan, as far as Salecah and Edrei, cities of the nation of Og in Bashan.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities,.... The oxen and sheep, camels and asses; their gold and silver, and the furniture of their houses; their stores of corn, and of other fruits of the earth, even all their substance of whatsoever kind:

we took for a prey to ourselves; made them their own property, and used them for their own profit and service, whereby they became greatly enriched.
