2:37 Like the Moabites, the Ammonites were related to Israel and were thus to be left undisturbed (cp. 2:9). • The Jabbok River, a great tributary of the Jordan River, marked the border between Gilead to the north and the Amorite kingdom of Sihon to the south. The Ammonites lived east and south of the Jabbok (2:19). It was somewhere at the Jabbok that Jacob wrestled with the stranger at night (Gen 32:22-32).
