Giosué 10:39

Listen to Giosué 10:39
39 La prese col suo re e con tutte le sue città; la misero a fil di spada e votarono allo sterminio tutte le persone che vi si trovavano, senza che ne scampasse una. Egli trattò Debir e il suo re come avea trattato Hebron, come avea trattato Libna e il suo re.

Giosué 10:39 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 10:39

And he took it, and the king thereof, and all the cities
thereof
For this also was a royal city, and had others dependent on it; and therefore must lie further from Hebron than before suggested; and indeed Burchard F11 says it was five or six miles from it, and another writer F12 says ten miles:

and they smote them with the edge of the sword;
the inhabitants of Debir, and the other cities adjacent to it;

and utterly destroyed all the souls that [were] therein, he left none
remaining;
and yet it seems this city recovered again, and was reinhabited, and after the death of Joshua was taken by Othniel, ( Judges 1:11-13 ) ; unless, as before observed, with respect to Hebron, there is there a more particular account of the taking of it at this time:

as he had done to Hebron, so did he to Debir, and to the king thereof,
as he had done also to Libnah and her king;
that is, slew them.

Giosué 10:39 In-Context

37 La presero, la misero a fil di spada insieme col suo re, con tutte le sue città e con tutte le persone che vi si trovavano; non ne lasciò sfuggire una, esattamente come avea fatto ad Eglon; la votò allo sterminio con tutte le persone che vi si trovavano.
38 Poi Giosuè con tutto Israele tornò verso Debir, e l’attaccò.
39 La prese col suo re e con tutte le sue città; la misero a fil di spada e votarono allo sterminio tutte le persone che vi si trovavano, senza che ne scampasse una. Egli trattò Debir e il suo re come avea trattato Hebron, come avea trattato Libna e il suo re.
40 Giosuè dunque batté tutto il paese, la contrada montuosa, il mezzogiorno, la regione bassa, le pendici, e tutti i loro re; non lasciò scampare alcuno, ma votò allo sterminio tutto ciò che avea vita, come l’Eterno, l’Iddio d’Israele, avea comandato.
41 Così Giosuè li batté da Kades-Barnea fino a Gaza, e batté tutto il paese di Goscen fino a Gabaon.
