The King of the Ammonites sends him word, that Israel had taken away 1part of his land, when they went out of Egypt toward the land of Canaan, and therefore he made war with them. But how true this was, ye may see in Deuteronomy, where the Lord speaketh thus to the children of Israel, 2when they should pass by them: Thou shalt not lay siege against the children of Ammon, neither make war against them, for I will not give the land of the children of Ammon into thy hands. And in the 37. verse, Moses tells them, they obeyed the Lord therein, saying: Unto the land of the 3children of Ammon thou camest not: nor unto any place of the river Jabbok upon which it bounded. So we see, that whereas it is manifest, that the Lord suffered not Israel to meddle with Ammon; yet the King answers boldly, they did.
