Judges 11:15 in context

  1. 13The king of the children of Ammon answered the messengers of Jephthah, “Because Israel took away my land when he came up out of Egypt, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok, and to the Jordan. Now therefore restore that territory again peaceably.”
  2. 14Jephthah sent messengers again to the king of the children of Ammon;
  3. 15and he said to him, “Jephthah says: Israel didn’t take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon;
  4. 16but when they came up from Egypt, and Israel went through the wilderness to the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh,
  5. 17then Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, ‘Please let me pass through your land;’ but the king of Edom didn’t listen. In the same way, he sent to the king of Moab, but he refused; so Israel stayed in Kadesh.
