“And what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be good or bad; and what cities they be that they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds;”
What kind of land do they live in? Is it good or bad? What kind of towns do they live in? Are they unwalled or fortified? — the detailed questions probe the land's infrastructure and defensibility; even strategic reconnaissance, when filtered through fear, will distort answers into counsel of despair.
