Giosué 10:42

Listen to Giosué 10:42
42 E Giosuè prese tutti quei re, e il lor paese ad una volta; perciocchè il Signore Iddio d’Israele combatteva per Israele.

Giosué 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.''

Giosué 10:42 In-Context

40 Giosuè dunque percosse tutto quel paese, la contrada del monte, e del Mezzodì, e della pianura, e delle pendici dei monti, insieme con tutti i re loro; egli non ne lasciò alcuno in vita; anzi distrusse al modo dell’interdetto ogni anima, come il Signore Iddio d’Israele avea comandato.
41 Così Giosuè li percosse da Cades-barnea fino a Gaza; e tutto il paese di Gosen, fino a Gabaon.
42 E Giosuè prese tutti quei re, e il lor paese ad una volta; perciocchè il Signore Iddio d’Israele combatteva per Israele.
43 Poi Giosuè, con tutto Israele, ritornò al campo, in Ghilgal.
