 1  Moses' speech in the end of the fortieth year;
 6  briefly rehearsing the history of God's sending them from
    Horeb;
14  of giving them officers;
19  of sending the spies to search the land;
34  of his anger for their incredulity;
41  and disobedience.

VERSE 1
- on this.
   * Nu 32:5,19,32; 34:15; 35:14 Jos 9:1,10; 22:4,7
- Red sea.  or, Zuph.  Or rather, Suph.
  This could not have been the Red Sea, not only because the
  word {yam,} "sea," is not joined with it as usual, but because
  they were now east of Jordan, and farther from the Red Sea
  than ever.  It seems to be the same which is called {Suphah}
  in Nu 21:14; which must necessarily signify some place in or
  adjoining to the plains of Moab, and not far from the Jordan
  and Arnon.  Ptolemy mentions a people called Sophonites that
  dwelt in Arabia Petr'a, who may have taken their name from
  this place.

- Paran.
  Paran, Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Dizahab, seem to have been
  either places or cities not far from the plains of Moab; for
  it is evident that Paran and Hazeroth could not have been
  those near the Red sea, and not far from Horeb.

   * De 33:2 Ge 21:21 Nu 10:12; 12:16; 13:3,26 1Sa 25:1 Hab 3:3

   * Ge 12:7; 13:14,15; 15:16,18; 17:7,8; 22:16-18; 26:3,4; 28:13,14

   * 1Ch 27:23 Ne 9:23
- ye are this day.
  This was the promise made by God to Abraham, (Ge 15:5, 6,)
  which Moses considers now as amply fulfilled.  Many suppose
  the expression to be hyperbolical; and others, no friends to
  revelation, think it a vain, empty boast, because the stars,
  in their apprehension, amount to innumerable millions.  But,
  as this refers to the number of stars that appear to the naked
  eye, which only amount to about 3,010 in both hemispheres, the
  number of the Israelites far exceeded this; for independently
  of women and children, at the last census, they amounted to
  more than 600,000.

VERSE 11 
 - make you.
   * 2Sa 24:3 1Ch 21:3 Ps 115:14

  That is, let not the bold, daring countenances of the rich or

  the abject look of the poor man induce you either to favor
  him in an unrighteous cause, or to give judgment against him
  at the demand of the oppressor.

- ye shall hear.

VERSE 22 
 - We will send.
  The people proposed this measure through unbelief; Moses,
  mistaking their motive, approved of it; and God, being justly
  displeased, permitted them to follow their own counsel, which
  proved injurious to them only through their sin and folly.

   * De 9:1,2 Nu 13:28-33
- walled.
  That is, with very high walls, which could not be easily
  scaled.  Harmer says, high walls are still to be seen in
  Arabia, and are deemed a sufficient defence against the Arabs,
  who scarcely ever attempt to plunder except on horseback.  The
  monastery on Mount Sinai, and the convent of St. Anthony in
  Egypt, are surrounded with a very high wall, without gates;
  the persons and things being taken up and let down through an
  opening in the upper part, by means of a pulley and a basket.
  This kind of walling is a sufficient defence.

 - chased you.
  When bees are provoked or disturbed, the whole swarm attack
  and pursue whatever annoys them, with great courage and fury,
  and sometimes are a most formidable enemy.  They were so
  troublesome in some districts of Crete, that, according to
  Pliny, the inhabitants were actually compelled to forsake
  their homes.  'lian reports, that some places in Scythia were
  formerly inaccessible on account of the numerous swarms of
  bees with which they were infested.  Mr. Park relates, that
  some of his associates imprudently attempted to rob a numerous
  hive which they found in their way.  The exasperated little
  animals rushed out to defend their property, and attacked them
  with so much fury, that they quickly compelled the whole
  company of men, horses, and asses, to scamper off in all
  directions,  The horses were never recovered, and a number of
  the asses were so severely stung, that they died the next day.
