Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Numbers 32:4
[Even] the country which the LORD smote before the congregation of Israel, [is] a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle:
Which the Lord smote before the congregation, and gave to them for a possession, in the same manner as he will give the land of Canaan.

Even the county which the Lord smote before the congregation of Israel,…. In which the above cities were, and perhaps some others not named: this was now in the hands of the people of Israel, being subdued by them, the conquest of which is ascribed unto the Lord, for the victory was of him; it was he that smote their enemies; and delivered their country into their hands; and now Moses, Eleazar, and the princes of the congregation, being the representatives of the people, had a right to dispose of it, and, which these two tribes request might be given to them, because, say they:
it is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle; to stock it, with and great numbers of them; see Nu 32:1
