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. They surrounded Eglon, attacked it, and 35 captured it the same day. They killed all its people and completely destroyed everything in it as an offering to the Lord , just as they had done to Lachish. 36 Then Joshua and the Israelites went from Eglon to Hebron and attacked it, 37 capturing it and all the little towns near it. 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 .

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the Lord delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, which he took on the second day,.... Either the second day from the slaughter of the kings, or rather the second day of the encampment or siege; so Kimchi: and

smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that [were] therein, according to all that he had done to Libnah; no mention is made of its king, because he was one of the five kings that had been hanged up; so that at the taking of this city there was no king.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 32. Lachish — It appears that this was anciently a very strong place; notwithstanding the people were panic-struck, and the Israelites flushed with success, yet Joshua could not reduce it till the second day, and the king of Assyria afterwards was obliged to raise the siege. See above, and Joshua 10:3.
