Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Joshua 10:29

"And Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, unto Libnah: and Jehovah delivered it also, and the king thereof, into the hand of Israel; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining in it; and he did unto the king thereof as he had done unto the king of Jericho."Lilley defended this summary as being as good as any that could have been presented for the whole Southern Campaign.[36] Of course, the "summary" is not complete;... read more

Ver. 29-32. Then Joshua passed—unto Libnah—and—from Libnah—unto Lachish, &c.— Having refreshed his army, Joshua brought it before Libnah, a town near Makkedah, chap. Jos 15:41-42 and which, afterwards, being comprized in the tribe of Judah, fell to the lot of the Levites, chap. Joshua 21:13. 1 Chronicles 6:57. Sennacherib laid siege to it, when he so haughtily menaced king Hezekiah, 2 Kings 19:8. Eusebius and St. Jerome say, that Libnah, in their time, was a village in the district of... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Joshua 10:28-39

Seven other victories followed the battle at Gibeon. In the record of these encounters the writer highlighted two important facts. Israel was obedient to God’s command to exterminate the Canaanites in these cities. Second, it was Yahweh who gave Israel’s enemies into her hands (Joshua 10:30; Joshua 10:32).". . . Yahweh has shown himself to be a God who accepts a people who follow him despite their past mistakes." [Note: Ibid., p. 119.] The purpose of Joshua’s raids was to destroy the military... read more

7. Other conquests in southern Canaan 10:28-43To this point Israel’s victories had taken place in central Canaan. God’s strategy was to give His people a base of operation in the middle part of the land first. From there they could then advance to the South and then to the North. The writer summarized the southern campaign in this section of verses. read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Joshua 10:1-43

The Conquest of Southern CanaanThis chapter narrates the successful campaign against the five confederate chiefs of the S., who are roused by the fall of Jericho and Ai and the alliance with Gibeon, and combine under the leadership of Adonizedek of Jerusalem to retaliate upon the Gibeonites. Bringing succour, as in duty bound, to his new allies, Joshua encounters the confederate forces in Beth-horon. By divine aid he inflicts on them a signal defeat, captures and slays all five kings, and... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Joshua 10:1-43

Joshua 10:0 Dr. W. G. Blaikie remarks that some commentators look on these words as akin to the prayer of Agamemnon (Iliad II, 412 sq.) that the sun must not go down till he had sacked Troy. He goes on: 'But whatever allowance we may make for poetical licence of speech, it is hardly possible not to perceive that the words as they stand imply a miracle of extraordinary sublimity; nor do we see any sufficient ground for resisting the common belief that in whatsoever way it was effected, there was... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Joshua 10:1-43

CHAPTER XIX.THE BATTLE OF BETHHORON.Joshua 10:1-43.OUT of the larger confederacy of the whole Canaanite chiefs against Joshua and his people recorded in the beginning of chap 9, a smaller number, headed by Adonizedec, undertook the special task of chastising the Gibeonites, who had not only refused to join the confederacy, but, as it was thought, basely and treacherously surrendered to Joshua. It is interesting to find the King of Jerusalem, Adonizedec, bearing a name so similar to that of... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Joshua 10:1-43

TOLA'S 23 YEARS AS JUDGE (vv. 1-2) Abimelech had been no help to Israel in his three years of authority, now another man, Tola of Issachar, "arose to save Israel" (v. 1). We are not told what he saved Israel from, and nothing is said of his character or of his actions. But if he saved Israel from the idol worship they had adopted, this was good work. Generally, where there is no recorded history the implications are good. He judged Israel 23 years and died. Though there is nothing... read more
