Verse 19 is found in chapter 20 of Numbers. Edom refuses Israel passage through its territory, and the Israelites turn away from its path. Moses’ diplomatic request shows that Israel recognizes territorial boundaries and does not seek to indiscriminately conquer every territory through which it passes. Edom’s refusal forces a change of route and prepares the next stage of the journey toward the territory east of the Jordan.
