“And reigned in mount Hermon, and in Salcah, and in all Bashan, unto the border of the Geshurites and the Maachathites, and half Gilead, the border of Sihon king of Heshbon.”
Og's territorial extent — And ruled over Mount Hermon, Salecah, and all Bashan, as far as the boundary of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and half of Gilead as far as the boundary of Sihon king of Heshbon. Og's domain encompasses the highest territories—Mount Hermon and the Bashan plateau. The boundary description—Geshurites, Maacathites, Gilead—establishes Og's northern extent and his border with Sihon to the south. This represents the complete Transjordan settlement by Reuben, Gad, and half-Manasseh.
