Riveduta Bibbia
In quel medesimo giorno Giosuè prese Makkeda e fece passare a fil di spada la città e il suo re; li votò allo sterminio con tutte le persone che vi si trovavano; non ne lasciò scampare una, e tratto il re di Makkeda come avea trattato il re di Gerico.

Giovanni Diodati Bibbia
Giosuè prese ancora Maccheda in quel dì, e la percosse, mettendola a fil di spada; e distrusse nel modo dell’interdetto il re di essa insieme con gli abitanti, e ogni anima ch’era dentro; egli non ne lasciò alcuno in vita; e fece al re di Maccheda, come avea fatto al re di Gerico.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And that day Joshua took Makkedah,.... Some say it was the day on which the sun stood still; but it seems to mean the day in which the five kings were hanged:

and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof; slew the inhabitants of it and their king, after having entered and taken it:

he utterly destroyed them and all the souls that [were] therein, he let none remain; that is, all human souls or persons; for the cattle were taken for a prey:

and he did to the king of Makkedah as he did unto the king of Jericho; slew him with the sword, along with the inhabitants, but did not hang him up, as he did the king of Ai and the five kings.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 28. That day Joshua took Makkedah — It is very possible that Makkedah was taken on the evening of the same day in which the miraculous solstice took place; but as to the other cities mentioned in this chapter, they certainly were subdued some days after, as it is not possible that an army, exhausted as this must have been with a whole night's march, and two days' hard fighting, could have proceeded farther than Makkedah that night; the other cities were successively taken in the following days.
