  • Moshe recounts passing the borders of Eisav: Hashem said to me that we have spent enough time circling the mountain and we should travel towards north. We were warned by Hashem that while traveling through the border of Eisav we are to take great heed not to instigate them, as we will not inherit even one parcel of their land. We shall buy food and water from them.
  • Moshe recounts passing the borders of Moav: So, we passed the border of Eisav and traveled towards the desert of Moav. Hashem warned us not to oppress Moav or instigate them into war, as their land will not be given to us as an inheritance. We were then instructed to travel across Nachal Zared. It took us 38 years to travel from Kadeish until crossing Nachal Zared, by which time the entire generation had already passed away.
  • Moshe recounts passing the borders of Ammon: Hashem told us that we will be passing the border of Moav and arrive by the nation of Ammon. Hashem warned us not to oppress or instigate them, as it will not be given to us as an inheritance.
  • Moshe recounts passing the border of Sichon: Hashem told us to go travel past Nachal Arnon and instigate a war with Sichon the Emorite king, as he will be handed into our hands. I sent envoys to Sichon with a peaceful message saying that we request to pass though his land, and we will go through the kings road and not swerve right or left. We will purchase food and drink from you, just as was done when we passed the land of Seir and Moav. However, Sichon refused our entry due to Hashem hardening his heart so he be handed over to us.
