Commentary on Deuteronomy 2:21
The description 'A people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims' provides comparative analysis—the Zamzummim were equivalent to the dreaded Anakim that terrified Israel's spies. Yet the statement 'the LORD destroyed them before them' shows God gave Ammon complete victory. This deliberate parallel teaches Israel: just as God destroyed giants for Ammon, He will destroy the Anakim for you. Past precedent builds present faith.
