Josué 11:18 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 11:18

Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.
] For, though the account of the conquest of them is put together, and lies in a small compass, yet those victories were not obtained at once, or in a few days, as were those of the five kings, and others, related in the preceding chapter, ( Joshua 10:10-14 ) ; but were the work of some years; Josephus F2 says five years, but the common notion of the Jews is, that Joshua was seven years in subduing the land of Canaan F3; our Bishop Usher F4 thinks it was done in six years; and it may be concluded that it was about six or seven years ere this work was completely finished.

Josué 11:18 In-Context

16 Tom贸 pues Josu茅 toda esta tierra, las monta帽as, y toda la regi贸n del mediod铆a, y toda la tierra de Gos茅n, y los bajos y los llanos, y la monta帽a de Israel y sus valles.
17 Desde el monte de Halac, que sube hasta Seir, hasta Baal-gad en la llanura del L铆bano, a las ra铆ces del monte Herm贸n; tom贸 asimismo todos sus reyes, los cuales hiri贸 y mat贸.
18 Por muchos d铆as tuvo guerra Josu茅 con estos reyes.
19 No hubo ciudad que hiciese paz con los hijos de Israel, sacados los heveos, que moraban en Gaba贸n; todo lo tomaron por guerra.
20 Porque esto vino del SE脩OR, que endurec铆a el coraz贸n de ellos para que resistiesen con guerra a Israel, para destruirlos, y que no les fuese hecha misericordia, antes fuesen desarraigados, como el SE脩OR lo hab铆a mandado a Mois茅s.
