Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they burnt the city with fire, and all that [was] therein,.... As Babylon the great, of which this city was an emblem, as has been observed, :-; will be burnt with fire also, Revelation 18:8;
only the silver and the gold, and the vessels of brass and iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the Lord;
Revelation 18:8- :.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Joshua 6:24. Only the silver, and the gold - they put into the treasury, c. — The people were to have no share of the spoils, because they had no hand in the conquest. God alone overthrew the city and into his treasury only the spoils were brought. This is one proof that the agitation of the air, by the sound of the people's voice, was not the cause of the fall of the city walls.
Vessels of brass and of iron. - Instead of כלי keley, VESSELS, the Septuagint, in the Alexandrian copy, evidently have read כל col, ALL, with the omission of the י yod; for in Joshua 6:19 they translate πας χαλκος και σιδηρος, ALL the brass and iron: but this reading does not appear in any of Kennicott's or De Rossi's MSS.
