Contextual Overview

²⁸ That day Joshua defeated Makkedah. He killed the king and completely destroyed all the people in that city as an offering to the Lord ; no one was left alive. He did the same thing to the king of Makkedah that he had done to the king of Jericho. ²⁹ Joshua and all the Israelites traveled from Makkedah to Libnah and attacked it. ³⁰ The Lord handed over the city and its king. They killed every person in the city; no one was left alive. And they did the same thing to that king that they had done to the king of Jericho. ³¹ Then Joshua and all the Israelites left Libnah and went to Lachish, which they surrounded and attacked. ³² The Lord handed over Lachish on the second day. The Israelites killed everyone in that city just as they had done to Libnah. ³³ During this same time Horam king of Gezer came to help Lachish, but Joshua also defeated him and his army; no one was left alive. ³⁴ Then Joshua and all the Israelites went from Lachish to Eglon.

The Israelites killed everyone in Hebron; no one was left alive there. Just as they had done to Eglon, they completely destroyed the city and all its people as an offering to the Lord .

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Eglon: This town appears to have been no great distance from Lachish, with which it is mentioned, Joshua 15:39, as one of the cities given to Judah. Joshua 10:3, Joshua 12:12, Joshua 15:39

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And from Lachish Joshua passed unto Eglon,.... Which, according to Bunting f, was eight miles from Lachish, and twelve from Jerusalem southward, of which see Joshua 10:5;

and all Israel with him, and they encamped against it, and fought against it; it not surrendering at once, but attempted to hold out a siege.

f Ut supra. (Travels of the Patriarchs, &c. p. 96.)

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 34. Eglon — It is likely that this town was not any great distance from Lachish. Joshua 10:3.
