Contextual Overview

¹⁵ After this, Joshua and his army went back to the camp at Gilgal. ¹⁶ During the fight the five kings ran away and hid in a cave near Makkedah, ¹⁷ but someone found them hiding in the cave at Makkedah and told Joshua. ¹⁸ So he said, "Cover the opening of the cave with large rocks. Put some men there to guard it, ¹⁹ but don't stay there yourselves. Continue chasing the enemy and attacking them from behind. Don't let them get to their cities, because the Lord your God will hand them over to you." ²⁰ So Joshua and the Israelites killed the enemy, but a few were able to get back to their strong, walled cities. ²¹ After the fighting, Joshua's men came back safely to him at Makkedah. No one was brave enough to say a word against the Israelites. ²² Joshua said, "Move the rocks that are covering the opening of the cave and bring those five kings out to me." ²³ So Joshua's men brought the five kings out of the cave—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon. ²⁴ When they brought the five kings out to Joshua, he called for all his men. He said to the commanders of his army, "Come here! Put your feet on the necks of these kings." So they came close and put their feet on their necks.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then said Joshua, open the mouth of the cave,.... That is, roll away the great stones that were laid at the mouth of it:

and bring out those five kings unto me out of the cave; to receive their sentence in a public manner, for the encouragement of his troops and the terror of the Canaanites, particularly Makkedah, now besieged by him.
