thou goest: Deuteronomy 20:10-16
Reciprocal: Numbers 31:18 - keep alive for yourselves
Gill's Notes on the Bible
When thou goest forth to war against thine enemies,.... This refers to an arbitrary war, as Jarchi remarks, which they entered into of themselves, of choice, or through being provoked to it by their enemies; and not a war commanded by the Lord, as that against the seven nations of Canaan, and against Amalek; since there were to be no captives in that war, but all were to be destroyed:
and the Lord thy God hath delivered them into thine hands; given them the victory over their enemies, so that they were obliged to surrender themselves to them prisoners of war:
and thou hast taken them captive, or "led his or their captivity b captive"; led them captive who used to lead others, denoting their conquest of victorious nations; see a like phrase in Psalms 68:18.
b ושבית שביו "et captivam duxerit captivitatem ejus", Pagninus, Montanus, Vatablus.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The regulations which now follow in the rest of this and throughout the next chapter bring out the sanctity of various personal rights and relations fundamental to human life and society.
Deuteronomy 21:10-14. The war supposed here is one against the neighboring nations after Israel had utterly destroyed the Canaanites (compare Deuteronomy 7:3), and taken possession of their land.
