Private to you. Anything you write on this verse, here or while reading, shows up here and in My study.
Og king of Bashan, for his loving kindness endures forever;
and Og king of Bashan— His loving devotion endures forever.
And Og the king of Bashan: for his mercy endureth for ever:
And Og king of Bashan; For his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever;
And Og, king of Bashan: for his mercy is unchanging for ever:
Tap a word to see what it means and everywhere else it's used.
"And Og, the king of Basan" [Psalm 136:20]. The "heaper-together," such is the meaning of Og, and, king of "confusion," which Basan signifies. For what else does the devil heap together but confusion?
Matthew Henry · Verses 10–22
The great things God did for Israel, when he brought them out of Egypt, were mercies which endured long to them; and our redemption by Christ, which was typified thereby, endures for ever. It is good to enter into the history of God's favours, and in each to observe, and own, that his mercy endureth for ever. He put them in possession of a good land; it was a figure of the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Spurgeon · Verse 20
And Og the king of Bashan. He was of the race of the giants, but he was routed like a pygmy when he entered the lists with Israel's God. The Lord's people were called upon to fight against him, but it was God who won the victory. The fastnesses of Bashan were no defence against Jehovah. Og was soon ousted from his stronghold when the captain of the Lord's host led the war against him. He had to exchange his bedstead of iron for a bed in the dust, for he fell on the battle field.
Glory be to the divine conqueror, for his mercy endureth for ever.
Giant kings before him yield,
Mercy ever holds the field.
If Sihon could not turn the Lord from his purpose we may be sure that Og could not. He who delivers us out of one trouble will rescue us out of another, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his grace in us.
