Kill every woman who has slept with a man. The younger women who are virgins you can keep alive for yourselves.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Moses and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation,.... Attended, no doubt, with a proper retinue:
went forth to meet them without the camp; partly to do honour to them, and to congratulate them on their victory, and partly to hinder them going into the camp directly, until they were purified; see
Genesis 14:17.
