“For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sword: because ye are turned away from the Lord, therefore the Lord will not be with you.”
The Amalekites and the Canaanites will face you there. Because you have turned away from the LORD, he is not with you and you will fall by the sword.' Nevertheless, they presumed to go up toward the hill country, though neither Moses nor the ark of the LORD's covenant moved' — the visual marker of God's absence: the ark remains motionless, not advancing with the people. Their presumption is naked rebellion.
