Joshua 6:20 - Forerunner Commentary

Joshua 6:20

18 And you, ^aby all means abstain from the accursed things, lest you become accursed when you take of the accursed things, and make the camp of Israel a curse, ^band trouble it.

19 But all the silver and gold, and vessels of bronze and iron, are¹ consecrated to the Lord; they² shall come into the treasury of the Lord.”

20 So the people shouted when the priests blew the trumpets. And it happened when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that ^athe wall fell down flat. Then the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.

21 And they ^autterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, ox and sheep and donkey, with the edge of the sword.

22 But Joshua had said to the two men who had spied out the country, “Go into the harlot’s house, and from there bring out the woman and all that she has, ^aas you swore to her.”

23 And the young men who had been spies went in and brought out Rahab, ^aher father, her mother, her brothers, and all that she had. So they brought out all her relatives and left them outside the camp of Israel.
