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.

They killed every person in the city; no one was left alive.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

the king: From Joshua 10:23, we learn that the king of Hebron was one of the five whom Joshua slew and hanged on five trees at Makkedah. This slaying of the king of Hebron, therefore, must either refer to what had already been done, or the Hebronites had set up another, whom Joshua now slew when he took the city.

according: Joshua 10:35

Reciprocal: Exodus 17:13 - General Joshua 10:28 - them Joshua 10:39 - he left none Joshua 10:40 - utterly Joshua 11:12 - all the Joshua 12:10 - Hebron Joshua 14:13 - gave unto Joshua 15:14 - General

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And they took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword,

and the king thereof,.... For though the king of Hebron was one of the kings that were taken in the cave of Makkedah, and hanged; yet before Joshua came up to it, they had set up another king over them:

and all the cities thereof; for Hebron was a metropolitan city, and had other cities dependent on it, and subject to it:

and all the souls that [were] therein; both in Hebron, and in the cities subject to it:

he left none remaining; in any of them:

according to all that he had done to Eglon; the last place he came from:

but destroyed it utterly, and all the souls that [were] therein; but it seems that afterwards some that made their escape before the taking of the city, and other Canaanites driven out of their habitations, repeopled it; so that after Joshua's death it was recovered again by the tribe of Judah, Judges 1:10; unless there is given in that place a more particular account of the taking of this city, with others at this time; but the former seems most likely.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The king thereof - No doubt the successor of the king slain at Makkedah Joshua 10:23.

All the cities thereof - i. e. the smaller towns dependent upon Hebron. The expression marks Hebron as the metropolis of other subject towns.
