Josué 9:2 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 9:2

That they gathered themselves together to fight with Joshua,
and with Israel
Not at this time, but they met together to consult what was proper to be done in order to secure themselves, and their people, and put a stop to the successes of the arms of Israel; and for this purpose entered into alliances with each other to assist one another, or at a convenient time and place to join their forces together, and attack Israel, as afterwards they did, ( Joshua 11:1-5 ) ; and this they did

with one accord;
were unanimous in their councils and resolutions; they all confederated together, and agreed as one man to make a common cause of it, and oppose Israel with their united forces.

Josué 9:2 In-Context

1 E souberam disso todos os reis que viviam a oeste do Jordão, nas montanhas, na Sefelá e em todo o litoral do mar Grande até o Líbano. Eram os reis dos hititas, dos amorreus, dos cananeus, dos ferezeus, dos heveus e dos jebuseus.

2 Eles se ajuntaram para guerrear contra Josué e contra Israel.

3 Contudo, quando os habitantes de Gibeom souberam o que Josué tinha feito com Jericó e Ai,

4 recorreram a um ardil. Enviaram uma delegação, trazendo jumentos carregados de sacos gastos e vasilhas de couro velhas, rachadas e remendadas.

5 Os homens calçavam sandálias gastas e remendadas e vestiam roupas velhas. Todos os pães do suprimento deles estavam secos e esmigalhados.
