Joosua 8:2

Ja tee Aille ja sen kuninkaalle, niinkuin teit Jerikolle ja sen kuninkaalle; kuitenkin saatte ryöstää itsellenne, mitä sieltä on saatavana saalista ja karjaa. Aseta väijytys kaupungin taa."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And thou shalt do to Ai and her king as thou didst to Jericho and her king,.... Burn the one and slay the other:

only the spoil thereof, and the cattle thereof, shall ye take for a prey unto yourselves; which they were not allowed to do at Jericho:

lay thee an ambush for the city behind it; at the west side of it: some have called in question the lawfulness of the ambush, but, as this was appointed by the Lord, there is no room for it.
