Deuteronômio 20:13 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 20:13

And when the Lord thy God hath delivered it into thine hands,
&c.] When, what with pressures without, and calamities within, the city is obliged to surrender: this is not to be imputed to the methods and arts of war used in besieging, or to the courage and skill of the besiegers; but to the power and providence of God succeeding means used, and sending famine or pestilence among the besieged, and inclining their hearts to deliver up their city:

thou shall smite every male thereof with the edge of the sword;
the men in it, grown persons, as distinguished from little ones in the next verse; because it was owing to these it was not surrendered at once, when terms of peace were offered.

Deuteronômio 20:13 In-Context

11 Se os seus habitantes aceitarem e abrirem suas portas, serão seus escravos e se sujeitarão a trabalhos forçados.
12 Mas, se eles recusarem a paz e entrarem em guerra contra vocês, sitiem a cidade.
13 Quando o SENHOR, o seu Deus, entregá-la em suas mãos, matem ao fio da espada todos os homens que nela houver.
14 Mas as mulheres, as crianças, os rebanhos e tudo o que acharem na cidade, será de vocês; vocês poderão ficar com os despojos dos seus inimigos dados pelo SENHOR, o seu Deus.
15 É assim que vocês tratarão todas as cidades distantes que não pertencem às nações vizinhas de vocês.
