Nu 13:2
13:2 {b} Send thou men, that they may search the land of Canaan,
     which I give to the children of Israel: of every tribe of
     their fathers shall ye send a man, every one a ruler among
     them.

     (b) After the people had required it of Moses, as it is in
         @De 1:22 then the Lord told Moses to do it.

Nu 13:16
13:16 These [are] the names of the {c} men whom Moses sent to
      spy out the land. And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun
      Jehoshua.

      (c) Which in number were twelve according to the twelve
          tribes.

Nu 13:19
13:19 And what the land [is] that they dwell in, whether it [be]
      {d} good or bad; and what cities [they be] that they dwell
      in, whether in tents, or in strong holds;

      (d) Plentiful or barren.

Nu 13:21
13:21 So they went up, and searched the land from the wilderness
      of {e} Zin unto Rehob, as men come to Hamath.

      (e) Which was in the wilderness of Paran.

Nu 13:22
13:22 And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron;
      where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of {f}
      Anak, [were]. (Now {g} Hebron was built seven years before
      Zoan in Egypt.)

      (f) Which were a type of giant.
      (g) Declaring the antiquity of it: also Abraham, Sarah,
          Isaac and Jacob were buried there.

Nu 13:26
13:26 And they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all
      the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the
      wilderness of {h} Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word
      unto them, and unto all the congregation, and shewed them
      the fruit of the land.

      (h) Called also Kadesh-barnea.

Nu 13:27
13:27 And they told {i} him, and said, We came unto the land
      whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with milk
      and honey; and this [is] the fruit of it.

      (i) That is, Moses.

Nu 13:28
13:28 Nevertheless the people [be] strong that dwell in the
      land, and the cities [are] walled, [and] very great: and
      moreover we saw the {k} children of Anak there.

      (k) Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, whom Caleb slew
          afterward, @Jos 11:21,22.

Nu 13:32
13:32 And they brought up an evil report of the land which they
      had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The
      land, through which we have gone to search it, [is] a land
      that {l} eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the
      people that we saw in it [are] men of a great stature.

      (l) The giants were so cruel, that they spoiled and killed
          one another and those that came to them.
