Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

returned unto Ai: This must refer to the women, children, and old persons left behind; for it seems that all the effective men had sallied out when they imagined the Israelites had fled - Joshua 8:16. Joshua 10:30-41, Joshua 11:10-14, Numbers 21:24

Reciprocal: Genesis 14:10 - fell Deuteronomy 7:2 - utterly Joshua 8:2 - do to Ai Joshua 8:17 - a man Joshua 10:20 - had made John 11:54 - Ephraim

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it came to pass, when Israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of Ai,.... That came out against them:

in the field, in the wilderness wherein they chased them; both in the arable lands that were sown with corn, and now clothed with it, the wheat especially, not being gathered in, as not yet ripe, and in the pasture ground, designed by the wilderness, see Joshua 8:15; so Kimchi and Ben Melech interpret it:

and when they were all fallen on the edge of the sword; and were slain by it:

until they were consumed; and not one left:

that all the Israelites returned unto Ai; both the ambush that came out of it, and the army that came against it:

and smote it with the edge of the sword; that is, the inhabitants that were left in it unfit for war, as old men, infirm persons, women and children, as follows.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Joshua 8:24. Returned unto Ai, and smote it with the edge of the sword. — This must refer to the women, children, and old persons, left behind; for it is likely that all the effective men had sallied out when they imagined the Israelites had fled. See Joshua 8:16.
