• Why should they covet? They must learn not to seek what God would not give them. That is the point – to do God’s will. Jehovah had blessed Israel, and would have them content and thankful instead of coveting their neighbor’s goods. He too it was who had given the Mount to Esau: that was enough. (article #117462)
• They could well afford, therefore, to let Esau alone, and leave his possessions untouched. They were the favored objects of Jehovah’s tender care. He took knowledge of every step of their weary journey through the desert. He had, in His infinite goodness, charged Himself with all their necessities. He was going to give them the land of Canaan, according to His promise to Abraham; but the self-same hand which was giving them Canaan, had given mount Seir to Esau.
