(b) Which was named for the heap of stones that Jacob made as a sign of the covenant between him and Laban in [Genesis 31:47](../../../kjv/genesis/31/47). 32:13 And the LORD’S anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation, that had done {c} evil in the sight of the LORD, was consumed. (c) Because they complained and would not believe their report, which told the truth concerning the land. 32:15 For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and {d} ye shall destroy all this people. (d) By your occasion. 32:17 But we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Israel, until we have brought them unto their {e} place: and our little ones shall dwell in the fenced cities because of the inhabitants of the land. (e) In the land of Canaan. 32:20 And Moses said unto them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will go {f} armed before the LORD to war, (f) Before the Ark of the Lord. 32:21 And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the LORD, until he hath driven out his {g} enemies from before him, (g) That is, the inhabitants of the land. 32:22 And the land be subdued before the LORD: then afterward ye shall return, and be guiltless before the LORD, and before Israel; and this land shall be your possession {h} before the LORD. (h) The Lord will grant you this land which you request, [Joshua 1:15](../../../kjv/joshua/1/15). 32:23 But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the LORD: and be sure your sin {i} will find you out. (i) You shall assuredly be punished for your sin. 32:28 So concerning them Moses {k} commanded Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel: (k) Moses gave charge that his promise made to the Reubenites, and other, would be performed after his death so that they would not break theirs. 32:31 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, As the {l} LORD hath said unto thy servants, so will we do. (l) This is attributed to the Lord, which his messenger speaks. 32:33 And Moses gave unto them, [even] to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and unto half the tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the {m} Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, with the cities thereof in the coasts, [even] the cities of the country round about. (m) The Amorites dwelled on both sides of Jordan: but here he makes mention of them that dwelt on this side: [Joshua 10:12](../../../kjv/joshua/10/12) he speaks of them that inhabited beyond Jordan. 32:41 And Jair the son of Manasseh went and took the small towns thereof, and called them {n} Havothjair. (n) That is the villages of Jair. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com","name":"Real Bible Believers","description":"RBB","publisher":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/search?q={search_term_string}","query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/numbers/32#primaryimage","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/images/missing.jpg","contentUrl":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/images/missing.jpg","width":640,"height":370,"caption":"Geneva Study Bible - Numbers 32"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/numbers/32#webpage","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/numbers/32","name":"Geneva Study Bible - Numbers 32","isPartOf":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/numbers/32#primaryimage"},"datePublished":null,"dateModified":null,"author":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"description":"32:1 Now the children of {a} Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of cattle: and when they saw the land of Jazer, and the land of {b}","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/numbers/32#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/numbers/32"]}]},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/numbers/32#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/","name":"Home"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries","name":"Commentaries"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible","name":"Geneva Study Bible"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":4,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/numbers","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/numbers","name":"Numbers"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":5,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/numbers/32","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/numbers/32","name":"32"}}]},{"@type":["Person","Organization"],"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#personlogo","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/android-chrome-512x512.png","contentUrl":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/android-chrome-512x512.png","width":512,"height":512},"logo":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#personlogo"},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/RBiblebeliever","https://www.facebook.com/RBibleBelievers"]}]} ```
