YuēShūyàjì 10:42 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 10:42

And all these kings, and their land, did Joshua take at one
time
Not in one day, but in a very short time, in a few days, as the history clearly shows:

because the Lord God of Israel fought for Israel;
which is the true reason of such quick dispatch being made, otherwise in all probability much longer time must have been consumed in subduing them. The Targum is,

``because the Lord God of Israel fought by his Word for Israel.''
