Contextual Overview

²⁸ The same day Josue took Maceda, and destroyed it with the edge of the sword, and killed the king and all the inhabitants thereof: he left not in it the least remains. And he did to the king of Maceda, as he had done to the king of Jericho. ²⁹ And he passed from Maceda with all Israel to Lebna, and fought against it: ³⁰ And the Lord delivered it with the king thereof into the hands of Israel: and they destroyed the city with the edge of the sword, and all the inhabitants thereof. They left not in it any remains. And they did to the king of Lebna, as they had done to the king of Jericho. ³¹ From Lebna he passed unto Lachis, with all Israel: and investing it with his army, besieged it. ³² And the Lord delivered Lachis into the hands of Israel, and he took it the following day, and put it to the sword, and every soul that was in it, as he had done to Lebna. ³³ At that time Horam, king of Gazer, came up to succour Lachis: and Josue slew him with all his people so as to leave none alive. ³⁴ And he passed from Lachis to Eglon, and surrounded it, ³⁵ And took it the same day: and put to the sword all the souls that were in it, according to all that he had done to Lachis. ³⁶ He went up also with all Israel from Eglon to Hebron, and fought against it: ³⁷ Took it, and destroyed it with the edge of the sword: the king also thereof, and all the towns of that country, and all the souls that dwelt in it: he left not therein any remains: as he had done to Eglon, so did he also to Hebron, putting to the sword all that he found in it.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Joshua passed from Makkedah,.... After he had taken it, and destroyed its inhabitants, and its king:

and all Israel with him; that is, all the men of war he took with him from the camp at Gilgal, from whence he went to the relief of Gibeon:

unto Libnah, and fought against Libnah; a city that fell to the tribe of Judah, Joshua 15:42. Jerom r says, in his time it was a village, in the region of Eleutheropolis, and was called Libnah; according to Bunting s it was but two miles from Makkedah.

r De loc. Heb. fol. 92. M. s Travels of the Patriarchs, &c. p. 96.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Libnah - The word means “white” or “distinct,” and undoubtedly points to some natural feature of the spot, perhaps the “Garde Blanche” of the Crusaders, a castle which stood on or near the white cliffs which bound the plain of Philistia to the east opposite to Ascalon. It was in the southern part of the hill-country of Judah Joshua 15:42, and was one of the cities afterward assigned to the priests Joshua 21:13.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 29. Fought against Libnah — This city was near Makkedah, see Joshua 15:42, and fell to the tribe of Judah, Joshua 10:20; Joshua 10:42, and was given to the priests, Joshua 21:13. Sennacherib besieged it, after he had been obliged to raise the siege of Lachish. See 2 Kings 19:8; Isaiah 37:8.
