Deuteronomy 3:4

3:4 We captured all his cities at that time – there was not a town we did not take from them – sixty cities, all the region of Argob, ¹  the dominion of Og in Bashan.

Deuteronomy 3:18

Instructions to the Transjordanian Tribes

3:18 At that time I instructed you as follows: “The Lord your God has given you this land for your possession. You warriors are to cross over before your fellow Israelites ²  equipped for battle.

3:21 I also commanded Joshua at the same time, “You have seen everything the Lord your God did to these two kings; he ³  will do the same to all the kingdoms where you are going. ⁴ 

Deuteronomy 5:5

5:5 (I was standing between the Lord and you at that time to reveal to you the message ⁵  of the Lord, because you were afraid of the fire and would not go up the mountain.) He said:

Deuteronomy 10:8

10:8 At that time the Lord set apart the tribe of Levi ⁶  to carry the ark of the Lord’s covenant, to stand before the Lord to serve him, and to formulate blessings ⁷  in his name, as they do to this very day.

[3:4]  ¹ sn Argob. This is a subdistrict of Bashan, perhaps north of the Yarmuk River. See Y. Aharoni, Land of the Bible, 314.

[3:18]  ² tn Heb “your brothers, the sons of Israel.”

[3:21]  ³ tn Heb “the Lord.” The translation uses the pronoun (“he”) for stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy.

[3:21]  ⁴ tn Heb “which you are crossing over there.”

[5:5]  ⁴ tn Or “word” (so KJV, NASB, NIV); NRSV “words.”

[10:8]  ⁵ sn The Lord set apart the tribe of Levi. This was not the initial commissioning of the tribe of Levi to this ministry (cf. Num 3:11-13; 8:12-26), but with Aaron’s death it seemed appropriate to Moses to reiterate Levi’s responsibilities. There is no reference in the Book of Numbers to this having been done, but the account of Eleazar’s succession to the priesthood there (Num 20:25-28) would provide a setting for this to have occurred.

[10:8]  ⁶ sn To formulate blessings. The most famous example of this is the priestly “blessing formula” of Num 6:24-26.
