Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Joshua 10:5

_ _ the five kings of the Amorites — The settlement of this powerful and warlike tribe lay within the confines of Moab; but having also acquired extensive possessions on the southwest of the Jordan, their name, as the ruling power, seems to have been given to the region generally (2 Samuel 21:2), although Hebron was inhabited by Hittites or Hivites (Joshua 11:19), and Jerusalem by Jebusites (Joshua 15:63).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Joshua 10:1-6.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Joshua 10:5

Of the Amorites — This name being here taken largely for any of the Canaanites, as is frequent; for, to speak strictly, the citizens of Hebron here mentioned, Joshua 10:3, were Hittites. It is reasonably supposed, that the Amorites being numerous and victorious beyond Jordan poured forth colonies into the land of Canaan, subdued divers places, and so communicated their name to all the rest.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

(b) So envious the wicked are, when any depart from their hand.
