38 Then Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to aDebir; and they fought against it.  
39 And he took it and its king and all its cities; they struck them with the edge of the sword and utterly destroyed all the people who were in it. He left none remaining; as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir and its king, as he had done also to Libnah and its king.
40 So Joshua conquered all the land: the amountain country and the South and the lowland and the wilderness slopes, and ball their kings; he left none remaining, but cutterly destroyed all that breathed, as the Lord God of Israel had commanded.  
41 And Joshua conquered them from aKadesh Barnea as far as bGaza, cand all the country of Goshen, even as far as Gibeon.  
42 All these kings and their land Joshua took at one time, abecause the Lord God of Israel fought for Israel.  
43 Then Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp at Gilgal.

Joshua 10:40

All that breathed - That is, all mankind, they reserved the cattle for their own uses. As God had commanded - This is added for the vindication of the Israelites, whom God would not have to suffer in their reputation for executing his commands; and therefore he acquits them of that cruelty, which they might be thought guilty of, and ascribes it to his own just indignation. And hereby was typified the final destruction of all the impenitent enemies of the Lord Jesus, who having slighted the riches of his grace, must for ever feel the weight of his wrath.
