Ban those who hired Balaam from the assembly for 10 generations

By tub1

Deuteronomy 23:3-4 An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter the assembly of the LORD; even to the tenth generation none of his descendants shall enter the assembly of the LORD forever, because they did not meet you with bread and water on the road when you came out of Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse you.

PERSONAL COMMENTARY

I’m sure they had to have done a lot more than what this verse mentions in order to have an almost lifetime ban from being a part of the congregation.
