11:12. And he took and put to the sword and destroyed all the cities
round about, and their kings, as Moses the servant of God had commanded
him.
11:13. Except the cities that were on hills and high places, the rest
Israel burned: only Asor that was very strong he consumed with fire.
11:14. And the children of Israel divided among themselves all the spoil
of these cities and the cattle, killing all the men.
11:15. As the Lord had commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command
Josue, and he accomplished all: he left not one thing undone of all the
commandments which the Lord had commanded Moses.
11:16. So Josue took all the country of the hills, and of the south, and
the land of Gosen, and the plains and the west country, and the mountain
of Israel, and the plains thereof:
11:17. And part of the mountain that goeth up to Seir as far as Baalgad,
by the plain of Libanus under mount Hermon: all their kings he took,
smote and slew.
11:18. Josue made war a long time against these kings.
A long time... Seven years, as appears from chap. 14.10.
11:19. There was not a city that delivered itself to the children of
Israel, except the Hevite, who dwelt in Gabaon: for he took all by
fight.
11:20. For it was the sentence of the Lord, that their hearts should be
hardened, and they should fight against Israel, and fall, and should not
deserve any clemency, and should be destroyed as the Lord had commanded
Moses.
Hardened... This hardening of their hearts, was their having no thought
of yielding or submitting: which was a sentence or judgment of God upon
them in punishment of their enormous crimes.
11:21. At that time Josue came and cut off the Enancims from the
mountains, from Hebron, and Dabir, and Anab, and from all the mountain
of Juda and Israel, and destroyed their cities.
11:22. He left not any of the stock of the Enacims, in the land of the
children of Israel: except the cities of Gaza, and Geth, and Azotus, in
which alone they were left.
11:23. So Josue took all the land, as the Lord spoke to Moses, and
delivered it in possession to the children of Israel, according to their
divisions and tribes. And the land rested from wars.

12:3. And from the wilderness, to the sea of Ceneroth towards the east,
