SEV Biblia, Chapter 2:15

Y también la mano del SEÑOR fue sobre ellos para destruirlos de en medio del campamento, hasta acabarlos.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 15. For indeed the hand of the Lord was against them , etc.] His power was exerted in a way of wrath and vengeance on them, for their murmurings at the report of the spies; and therefore, it is no wonder they were consumed, for strong is his hand, and high is his right hand; and when lifted up it falls heavy, and there is no standing up under it, or against it: it smote them with one disease or another, or brought one judgment or another upon them: as the sword of Amalek, by which many were cut off, and the plague at Shittim in the plains of Moab, in which died 24,000; besides the destruction of Korah and his company, which was quickly after the affair of the spies, and the plague at that time, of which died 14,700; and thus, by one stroke after another, he went on to destroy them from among the host until they were consumed , even all of them but two, as follows.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 8-23 - We have the origin of the Moabites, Edomites, and Ammonites. Moses als gives an instance older than any of these; the Caphtorims drove the Avims out of their country. These revolutions show what uncertai things wordly possessions are. It was so of old, and ever will be so Families decline, and from them estates are transferred to familie that increase; so little continuance is there in these things. This i recorded to encourage the children of Israel. If the providence of God has done this for Moabites and Ammonites, much more would his promis do it for Israel, his peculiar people. Cautions are given not to meddl with Moabites and Ammonites. Even wicked men must not be wronged. God gives and preserves outward blessings to wicked men; these are not the best things, he has better in store for his own children.
