23:31 from the eastern wilderness to the Euphrates River: See Gen 15:18; Num 34:2-12; Deut 11:24; 2 Chr 9:26. • I will hand over to you the people: God had promised the land to Abraham (Gen 15:16). At that time, “the sins of the Amorites” had not yet run their course. Now they had. God was not arbitrarily dispossessing the Amorites (i.e., the Canaanites) but was using his people, the Israelites, to judge their wickedness.
