Raamattu Bible

Ja kokoa kaikki siitä otettu saalis keskelle sen toria ja polta tulella sekä kaupunki että kaikki siitä otettu saalis kokonaisuhrina Herralle, sinun Jumalallesi; ja jääköön se rauniokummuksi iankaikkisesti, älköönkä sitä koskaan enää rakennettako.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And thou shall gather all the spoil of it into the midst of the street thereof,.... All the wealth and substance of the inhabitants, their household goods, shop goods, merchandise, utensils in trade and business, and everything that can be named. The Jews say p, if there is no street, they make one (or a marketplace); if that is without it, they bring them into the midst of it:

and shall burn with fire the city, and all the spoil thereof every whit; be it what it may, or let it be whose property it will; and all this shall be done for the Lord thy God; as by his appointment and command, and in obedience to him, so for his honour and glory, and the vindication of his righteous law;

and it shall be an heap for ever, it shall not be built again; but lie a waste as Jericho, though not an entire waste; for according to the Jewish writers, though it might not be built as it was before, it might be made into gardens and orchards q.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Every whit, for the Lord thy God - Some prefer: “as a whole offering to the Lord thy God.”
