The Laws Moses Gave

⁴⁴ These are the ·teachings [laws; instructions] Moses gave to the ·people [^Lsons; ^Tchildren] of Israel. ⁴⁵ They are the rules, ·commands [statutes; ordinances; requirements], and laws he gave ·them [^Lthe sons/^Tchildren of Israel] when they came out of Egypt. ⁴⁶ They were in the ·valley [glen] near Beth Peor, ·east of [beyond] the Jordan River, in the land of Sihon. Sihon king of the Amorites ruled in Heshbon and was ·defeated [^Lstruck] by Moses and the ·Israelites [^Lsons/^Tchildren of Israel] as they came out of Egypt [Num. 21:21–32]. ⁴⁷ ·The Israelites [^LThey] took his land and the land of Og king of Bashan [Num. 21:33–35], the two Amorite kings east ·of [beyond] the Jordan River. ⁴⁸ This land went from Aroer, on the edge of the Arnon ·Ravine [Wadi], to Mount Hermon. ⁴⁹ It included all the ·Jordan Valley [^LArabah] ·east of [beyond] the Jordan River, and it went as far as the ·Dead [^LSalt] Sea below Mount Pisgah.
