Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
So shalt thou drive them out, and destroy them quickly - This is not inconsistent with Deu 7:22, in which instant annihilation is not to be expected for the reasons assigned. Here Moses urges the people to trust in God's covenanted aid; since He would then make no delay in so destroying the nations attacked by them as to put them into enjoyment of the promises, and in doing so as fast as was for the well-being of Israel itself. |
22 And the LORD [03068] thy God [0430] will put out [05394] those [0411] nations [01471] before [06440] thee by little [04592] and little [04592]: thou mayest [03201] not consume [03615] them at once [04118], lest the beasts [02416] of the field [07704] increase [07235] upon thee.
