“Because they met you not with bread and with water in the way, when ye came forth out of Egypt; and because they hired against thee Balaam the son of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse thee.”
Because they did not meet you with bread and water on your way when you came out of Egypt — the covenant breach is explicit: hospitality withheld during Israel's vulnerability. Failure to show basic hospitality during the exodus journey grounds this exclusion in historical covenant violation, not mere ethnic prejudice.
