       * Pr 10:24 Heb 10:27,31 Re 6:15-17
    - Gibeon.
      Gibeon was situated on an eminence, as its name imports, 40
      furlongs north from Jerusalem, according to Josephus.
    
    - the royal cities.  Heb. cities of the kingdom.
       * 1Sa 27:5 2Sa 12:26

     - king of Jerusalem.
       * :1,5; 12:10-13; 15:35-39,54,63; 18:28
    - Hebron.
      Hebron was situated on an eminence, 20 miles south of
      Jerusalem, and the same distance north of Beersheba.  It is
      now called El Khalil, "the well-beloved," the usual epithet
      which the Turks and Arabs apply to Abraham, whose sepulchral
      cave they still shew; over which St. Helena built a
      magnificent church.  Its original site was on an eminence, at
      the southern foot of which the present village is pleasantly
      situated, on which are the remains of an ancient castle, its
      sole defence.

       * Jos 16:3,5; 21:22 1Sa 13:18
    - Azekah.
       * :11; 15:35 Jer 34:7
    - Makkedah.
       * :28; 12:16; 15:41

    VERSE 12 
     - Sun.
      Joshua doubtless acted, on this occasion, by an immediate
      impulse upon his mind from the Spirit of God.  The terms here
      employed to record the miracle, agree with the accustomed
      manner in which the the motions of the earth and sun are
      described in our own day.  The sun apparently moves, but
      really is stationary; while the diurnal movement of the earth
      on its axis is by us unnoticed, and would not have been known
      except by astronomical science.  The sun appeared to the
      Israelites over Gibeon, and the moon over the valley of
      Ajalon, and there they stayed in their course for "a whole
      day."  Many vain enquiries have been made concerning the way
      in which this miracle was wrought, and many difficulties and
      objections have been urged against understanding it literally.
      But the fact is authenticated by the Divine testimony; and the
      manner in which it was accomplished lies entirely out of our
      province, because beyond our comprehension.

    VERSE 17
       This information brought to Joshua, is an evidence that there
      were those of the country, who knew the holes and fastnesses
      of it, that were in his interests.  And the care Joshua took
      to secure them there, as it is an instance of his policy and
      presence of mind, even in the heat of action; so, in the
      success of their project, it shews how they who think to hide
      themselves from God, not only deceive, but destroy themselves.
      Their refuge of lies will but bind them over to God's
      judgment.

       * Jos 4:9; 7:26
    
    
    VERSE 28 
     - Makkedah.
      Situated, according to Eusebius, 8 miles east from
      Eleutheropolis.  It was afterwards assigned to the tribe of
      Judah.
    
       * Jos 15:41
    - them.
       * :32,35,37,39; 6:21 De 7:2,16; 20:16,17 Ps 21:8,9; 110:1 Lu 19:27

    - and he did.
       * :30; 8:2
    
    
    VERSE 29 
     - Libnah.
      This city was situated in the south of Judah, and in the
      district of Eleutheropolis, according to Eusebius and Jerome.
      It is probably the Libnah in the neighborhood of which the
      Israelites encamped.
    
       * Jos 12:15; 15:42; 21:13 Nu 33:20 2Ki 8:22; 19:8 Jer 52:1
    - as he did.
       * :28; 6:21; 8:2,29
    
    VERSE 30
    
    
    VERSE 31 
     - Lachish.
      Lachish was also situated in the south of Judah, seven miles
      south from Eleutheropolis, according to Eusebius and Jerome.
      It appears to have been anciently a very strong place; for
      though the people were panic struck, and the Israelites
      flushed with success, yet Joshua could not reduce it till the
      second day; and the king of Assyria afterwards was obliged to
      raise the siege.
    
       * :3,5; 12:11; 15:39 2Ki 19:8 2Ch 11:9 Isa 37:8 Mic 1:13
    
    
    VERSE 32 
     - to Libnah.
       * :30
    
    
    VERSE 33 
     - Gezer.
      Gezer was situated on the confines of Ephraim and Manasseh,
      between Beth-horon and the sea; and is evidently the village
      of Gazara mentioned by Eusebius, four miles (north) from
      Nicopolis or Emmaus.
    
       * Jos 12:12; 16:3,10; 21:21 Jud 1:29 1Ki 9:16,17 1Ch 6:67; 20:4
    
    
    VERSE 34 
     - Eglon.
      This town appears to have been no great distance from Lachish,
      with which it is mentioned, ch. 39 15:39, as one of the cities
      given to Judah.
    
       * :3; 12:12; 15:39
    
    
    VERSE 35 
     - on that day.
       * :32
    - utterly.
       * :37 Le 26:44 Job 19:10
    
    
    VERSE 36 
     - Hebron.
       * :3,5; 14:13,14; 15:13,54; 21:13 Ge 13:18 Nu 13:22 Jud 1:10
       * 2Sa 5:1-5; 15:9,10 1Ch 12:23,28
    
    
    VERSE 37 
     - the king.
      From ver. 23, we learn that the king of Hebron was one of the
      five whom Joshua slew and hanged on five trees at Makkedah.
      This slaying of the king of Hebron, therefore, must either
      refer to what had already been done, or the Hebronites had set
      up another, whom Joshua now slew when he took the city.
    
    - according.
       * :35
    
    
    VERSE 38 
     - Debir.
      Debir was situated in the south of the tribe of Judah, near
      Hebron.  The expression of Joshua's returning to Debir,
      probably denotes, that having carried his conquests in the
      southern parts as far as Gaza, (ver. 41,) which was in the
      south-west angle of Canaan, he then marched back to besiege
      Debir.
    
       * Jos 12:13; 15:15,49; 21:15 Jud 1:11-15
    
    
    VERSE 39 
     - he left none.
       * :33,37,40; 11:8 De 3:3 2Ki 10:11 Ob 1:18
    
    
    VERSE 40 
     - all the country.
       * Jos 15:21-63; 18:21-28; 19:1-8,40-48
    - utterly.
       * :35,37 1Ki 15:29 Ps 9:17 2Th 1:7-9
    - as the Lord.
       * Jos 6:17; 8:2,27; 9:24 Ex 23:31-33; 34:12 De 7:2-16; 26:16,17
    
    
    VERSE 41 
     - Kadesh-barnea.
       * Jos 14:6,7 Nu 13:26; 32:8; 34:4 De 9:23
    - Gaza.
       * Ge 10:19 Jud 16:1,21 1Sa 6:17 Zec 9:5 Ac 8:26
    - all the country.
      The country of Goshen, mentioned here, seems to have been in
      the south of Judah; and to have taken its name from the city
      of Goshen, situated in the same tribe.
    
       * Jos 11:16; 15:51
    - Gibeon.
       * :2,12 1Ki 3:5
    
    
    VERSE 42 
     - because.
       * :14 Ex 14:14,25 De 20:4 Ps 44:3-8; 46:1,7,11; 80:3; 118:6
       * Isa 8:9,10; 43:4 Ro 8:31-37
    
    
    VERSE 43
