_ _ Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai — After the sacking of Jericho, the next step was to penetrate into the hills above. Accordingly, spies went up the mountain pass to view the country.

_ _ Beth-aven — (“house of vanity”) — a name afterwards given derisively (Hosea 4:15; Hosea 5:8; Hosea 10:5), on account of its idolatries, to Beth-el, “house of God,” but here referred to another place, about six miles east of Beth-el and three north of Ai. |
