Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Joshua 11:13

_ _ as for the cities that stood still in their strength — literally, “on their heaps.” It was a Phoenician custom to build cities on heights, natural or artificial [Hengstenberg].

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Joshua 11:10-14.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Joshua 11:13

In their strength — Heb. with their fence, walls or bulwarks, that is, which were not ruined with their walls in taking them. Save Hazor — Because this city began the war, and being the chief and royal city, might renew the war. If the Canaanites should ever seize upon it: which in fact they did, and settled there, under a king of the same name, Judges 4:2.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Joshua 11:13

But [as for] the cities that stood still in their (g) strength, Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only; [that] did Joshua burn.

(g) Which were strong by situation and not hurt by war.

in their:
Heb. on their heap, The Vulgate, Syriac, Onkelos and Waterland render âl tillom, "on their hills." As the cities of the plain might be easily attacked and carried, Joshua destroyed them; but as those on mountains, hills, or other eminences, might be retained by him with little trouble, prudence would dictate their preservation.
Jeremiah 30:18 Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will bring again the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have mercy on his dwellingplaces; and the city shall be builded upon her own heap, and the palace shall remain after the manner thereof.
