SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:22
Y cuando se levantaron por la maņana, y el sol saliķ sobre las aguas, vieron los de Moab desde lejos las aguas bermejas como sangre;
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 3:22
Verse 22. Saw the water on the other side as red as blood] This might have been an optical deception; I have seen the like sight when there was no reason to suspect supernatural agency. The Moabites had never seen that valley full of water, and therefore did not suspect that their eyes deceived them, but took it for the blood of the confederate hosts, who they thought might have fallen into confusion in the darkness of night and destroyed each other, as the Midianites had formerly done, Judg. vii. 22, and the Philistines lately, 1 Sam. xiv. 20.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 22. And they rose up early in the morning , etc.] To watch the motions of their enemies, and be upon their guard against them: and the sun shone upon the water ; with which the valley was filled: and the Moabites saw the water on the other side as red as blood ; so it appeared through the rays of the sun reflected on it.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 20-27 - It is a blessing to be favoured with the company of those who have power with God, and can prevail by their prayers. A kingdom may be upheld and prosper, in consequence of the fervent prayers of those wh are dear to God. May we place our highest regard upon such as are mos precious in his account. When sinners are saying Peace, peace destruction comes upon them: despair will follow their mad presumption In Satan's service and at his suggestion, such horrid deeds have bee done, as cause the natural feelings of the heart to shudder; like the king of Moab's sacrificing his son. It is well not to urge the worst of men to extremities; we should rather leave them to the judgment of God __________________________________________________________________
