Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Joshua 10:9. Joshua - came unto them suddenly — This he did by a forced march during the night, for he went up from Gilgal all night; from Gilgal to Gibeon was about eighteen or twenty miles; and, having fallen so unexpectedly on these confederate kings, they were immediately thrown into confusion.
