Listen to Jueces 1:23
23 Y la casa de José envió espías a Betel (el nombre de la ciudad antes era Luz).

Jueces 1:23 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 1:23

And the house of Joseph sent to descry Bethel
To reconnoitre the place, to observe its passes and avenues, which were most accessible, and to examine the walls of it, where they were weakest and least defended:

now the name of the city before [was] Luz;
which signifies a "nut"; perhaps it was so called from large numbers of nut trees which grew near it; the Jews suggest as if it was like a nut, no entrance into it but through a cave or some subterraneous passage, see ( Genesis 28:19 ) .

Jueces 1:23 In-Context

21 Pero los hijos de Benjamín no expulsaron a los jebuseos que vivían en Jerusalén; así que los jebuseos han vivido con los hijos de Benjamín en Jerusalén hasta el día de hoy.
22 De igual manera la casa de José subió contra Betel; y el SEÑOR estaba con ellos.
23 Y la casa de José envió espías a Betel (el nombre de la ciudad antes era Luz).
24 Y vieron los espías a un hombre que salía de la ciudad y le dijeron: Te rogamos que nos muestres la entrada de la ciudad y te trataremos con misericordia.
25 El les mostró la entrada de la ciudad; e hirieron la ciudad a filo de espada, mas dejaron ir al hombre y a toda su familia.
