og, king of Basan , represents the opposition that the people of God must face on their way to the Promised land . This passage reminds us that, even in the face of formidable challenges, faith and determination are essential. As said
Deuteronomy 3:22 , "You will not be afraid of them, because the Lord, your God, fights for you." Let us always remember that our strength comes from
God and that each battle is an opportunity to grow in our faith.
