These events are recorded in <a href="/numbers/21-21.htm">Numbers 21:21-35</a> and <a href="/deuteronomy/2-24.htm">Deuteronomy 2:24-3</a>:11. The Amorites were a significant Canaanite group, and their defeat demonstrated God's power and faithfulness to His promises. The phrase "beyond the Jordan" indicates the region east of the Jordan River, which was initially outside the land of Canaan but was later allotted to the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half of Manasseh.Sihon king of Heshbon Sihon was the king of the Amorite city-state of Heshbon. His refusal to allow Israel passage through his land led to a battle in which Israel, under God's guidance, defeated him and took possession of his territory. Heshbon became a significant city in the region, and its conquest is a testament to God's provision and the fulfillment of His promise to give Israel the land of their enemies. This victory is also mentioned in <a href="/psalms/135-11.htm">Psalm 135:11</a> and <a href="/psalms/136-19.htm">Psalm 136:19</a>, highlighting its importance in Israel's history.and Og king of Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth. Og was the king of Bashan, a region known for its fortified cities and giants (<a href="/deuteronomy/3-4.htm">Deuteronomy 3:4-5, 11</a>). His defeat was significant due to his reputation and the strength of his kingdom. Ashtaroth, where Og reigned, was a major city in Bashan and a center of worship for the Canaanite goddess Astarte. The victory over Og is frequently referenced in the Old Testament (e.g., <a href="/deuteronomy/3.htm">Deuteronomy 3:1-11</a>, <a href="/psalms/135-11.htm">Psalm 135:11</a>, <a href="/psalms/136-20.htm">Psalm 136:20</a>) as a demonstration of God's might and a precursor to the conquest of Canaan.

Ashtaroth (see <a href="/joshua/12-4.htm">Joshua 12:4</a>; <a href="/joshua/13-31.htm">Joshua 13:31</a>; also <a href="/deuteronomy/1-4.htm">Deuteronomy 1:4</a>). In <a href="/numbers/21.htm">Numbers 21</a>. Edrei only is mentioned. This is not the Ashtaroth-Karnaim of <a href="/genesis/14-5.htm">Genesis 14:5</a>, which is so called from the worship of the horned Astarte, or crescent (see below), to distinguish it from this Ashtaroth. The two cities were close together. Eusebius and Jerome state that they were only nine miles apart. The site of this city has been identified with Tel Ashtereh, in a wide plain on the east of Jordan. It appears as Astaratu in the Karnak list of cities captured by Thothines III. The name has been identified with the Assyrian Ishtar, the Persian, Greek, and Latin aster and our star. So Gesenius, 'Thesaurus,' s.v. Whence Lucian seems to have been wrong in his idea that the worship of Astarte, like that of Artemis at Ephesus, was that of the moon. But Rawlinson, in his 'Ancient Monarchies,' decides against this identification. The last mention of this city in Jewish history is in the bold and successful expedition of Judas Maccabaeus into Gilead, in which he penetrated as far as this city (called Kar-naim), and brought the Jews residing there and in the neighbourhood to Jerusalem (1 Macc. 6.). Kuenen, in his 'History of the Religion of Israel,' makes a distinction between the worship of Ashtaroth and of Asherah. The former he regards as the worship of the moon, and a pure worship; the latter of Venus, and an impure one. But though Asherah and Ashtaroth, or Ashtoreth, are undoubtedly distinct, yet both worships may have been impure, as the worship of Artemis of the Ephesians (the Diana Multimamma, or the image of fecundity) unquestionably was. "It is probable," says Mr. G. Smith, "that the first intention in the mythology was only to represent love as heaven born, but in time a more sensual view prevailed, and the worship of Ishtar became one of the darkest features in Babylonian mythology." The Babylonian Mylitta, or Venus, was worshipped under a crescent form, as Babylonian sculptures prove. A Syrian altar with the crescent on it is now in the Fitzwilliam Museum at Cambridge. It has a female figure on one side, with the crescent, and a male figure - of Baal, no doubt - on the other. Another is mentioned in a late able article in the Times, as having been found in Carehemish, the Hittite capital. The Chaldaean astronomers had, no doubt, discovered the use of telescopes (though in the translucent sky of Chaldaea perhaps the crescent Venus might be seen without them), for we find Saturn represented on their monuments with a ring (see Proctor, 'Saturn and his System,' p. 197). Consequently the worship of the crescent Venus involves no anachronism. Asherah, often wrongly translated "grove" in our version (see <a href="/judges/6-25.htm">Judges 6:25</a>), is probably the goddess Fortune, derived from אֶֶשר, happiness. Ashtaroth is spelt not with Aleph, but with Ain. <a href="/commentaries/joshua/9-10.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>as well as וְאֵ֣ת ׀ (wə·’êṯ) Conjunctive waw | Direct object marker <a href="/hebrew/strongs_853.htm">Strong's 853: </a> Untranslatable mark of the accusative case all כָּל־ (kāl-) Noun - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3605.htm">Strong's 3605: </a> The whole, all, any, every that אֲשֶׁ֣ר (’ă·šer) Pronoun - relative <a href="/hebrew/strongs_834.htm">Strong's 834: </a> Who, which, what, that, when, where, how, because, in order that He did עָשָׂ֗ה (‘ā·śāh) Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_6213.htm">Strong's 6213: </a> To do, make to the two לִשְׁנֵי֙ (liš·nê) Preposition-l | Number - mdc <a href="/hebrew/strongs_8147.htm">Strong's 8147: </a> Two (a cardinal number) kings מַלְכֵ֣י (mal·ḵê) Noun - masculine plural construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4428.htm">Strong's 4428: </a> A king of the Amorites הָאֱמֹרִ֔י (hā·’ĕ·mō·rî) Article | Noun - proper - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_567.htm">Strong's 567: </a> Amorites -- perhaps 'mountain dwellers', a Canaanite tribe beyond בְּעֵ֣בֶר (bə·‘ê·ḇer) Preposition-b | Noun - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5676.htm">Strong's 5676: </a> A region across, on the opposite side the Jordan— הַיַּרְדֵּ֑ן (hay·yar·dên) Article | Noun - proper - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3383.htm">Strong's 3383: </a> Jordan -- the principal river of Palestine Sihon לְסִיחוֹן֙ (lə·sî·ḥō·wn) Preposition-l | Noun - proper - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5511.htm">Strong's 5511: </a> Sihon -- a king of the Amorites king מֶ֣לֶךְ (me·leḵ) Noun - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4428.htm">Strong's 4428: </a> A king of Heshbon חֶשְׁבּ֔וֹן (ḥeš·bō·wn) Noun - proper - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2809.htm">Strong's 2809: </a> Heshbon -- a place East of the Jordan and Og וּלְע֥וֹג (ū·lə·‘ō·wḡ) Conjunctive waw, Preposition-l | Noun - proper - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5747.htm">Strong's 5747: </a> Og -- king of Bashan king מֶֽלֶךְ־ (me·leḵ-) Noun - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4428.htm">Strong's 4428: </a> A king of Bashan, הַבָּשָׁ֖ן (hab·bā·šān) Article | Noun - proper - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1316.htm">Strong's 1316: </a> Bashan -- 'smooth', a region East of the Jordan who אֲשֶׁ֖ר (’ă·šer) Pronoun - relative <a href="/hebrew/strongs_834.htm">Strong's 834: </a> Who, which, what, that, when, where, how, because, in order that reigned in Ashtaroth. בְּעַשְׁתָּרֽוֹת׃ (bə·‘aš·tā·rō·wṯ) Preposition-b | Noun - proper - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_6252.htm">Strong's 6252: </a> A place East of the Jordan <div class="vheading">Links</div><a href="/niv/joshua/9-10.htm">Joshua 9:10 NIV</a> <a href="/nlt/joshua/9-10.htm">Joshua 9:10 NLT</a> <a href="/esv/joshua/9-10.htm">Joshua 9:10 ESV</a> <a href="/nasb/joshua/9-10.htm">Joshua 9:10 NASB</a> <a href="/kjv/joshua/9-10.htm">Joshua 9:10 KJV</a> <a href="//bibleapps.com/joshua/9-10.htm">Joshua 9:10 BibleApps.com</a> <a href="//bibliaparalela.com/joshua/9-10.htm">Joshua 9:10 Biblia Paralela</a> <a href="//holybible.com.cn/joshua/9-10.htm">Joshua 9:10 Chinese Bible</a> <a href="//saintebible.com/joshua/9-10.htm">Joshua 9:10 French Bible</a> <a href="/catholic/joshua/9-10.htm">Joshua 9:10 Catholic Bible</a> <a href="/joshua/9-10.htm">OT History: Joshua 9:10 And all that he did to (Josh.
