Og
Og is the name of an object-relational database mapping library used in
Nitro and written in
RubyAccording to several books of the
Old Testament, Og ( or ; meaning "gigantic" - /ʕog/ in
Hebrew) was an ancient
Amorite king of
Bashan who, along with his sons and army, was slain by
Joshua and his men at the battle of Edrei (probably modern day
Daraa,
Syria). Scholars are divided as to the approximate date of Og's overthrow and indeed the conquest of
Canaan by Israel, but most postulate c. 1500 or 1200 B.C. as the most likely candidates.

About
Og
(giant, literally long-necked), an Amoritish king of Bashan, whose rule extended over sixty cities. (Joshua 13:12) He was one of the last representatives of the giant race of Rephaim, and was, with his children and his people, defeated and exterminated by the Israelites at Edrei immediately after the conquest of Sihon. (Numbers 32:33; 3:1-13) Also (1:4; 4:47; 31:4; Joshua 2:10; 9:10; 13:12,30) The belief in Og's enormous stature is corroborated by an allusion to his iron bedstead preserved in "Rabbath of the children of Ammon." (3:11) (B.C. 1461.)

About
Og
gigantic, the king of Bashan, who was defeated by Moses in a pitched battle at Edrei, and was slain along with his sons (Deut. 1:4), and whose kingdom was given to the tribes of Reuben and Gad and half the tribe of Manasseh (Num. 21:32-35; Deut. 3:1-13). His bedstead (or rather sarcophagus) was of iron (or ironstone), 9 cubits in length and 4 cubits in breadth. His overthrow was afterwards celebrated in song (Ps. 135:11; 136:20). (See SIHON.)
