Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
And they: The Canaanites were ripe for destruction; and God was pleased, instead of destroying them by a pestilence, a famine, or an earthquake, to employ the Israelites as the executioners of his vengeance. Had an angel been commissioned to slay them, who would have charged him with iniquity or cruelty? In all public calamities infants are involved; and tens of thousands of infants die in great agony every year. Now, either God is not the agent in these calamities - which opinion, though often implied in men's reasonings on these subjects, is not far from atheism or they must consist with the most perfect justice and goodness.
utterly: Joshua 9:24, Joshua 9:25, Joshua 10:28, Joshua 10:39, Joshua 11:14, Deuteronomy 2:34, Deuteronomy 7:2, Deuteronomy 7:3, Deuteronomy 7:16, Deuteronomy 20:16, Deuteronomy 20:17, 1 Samuel 15:3, 1 Samuel 15:8, 1 Samuel 15:18, 1 Samuel 15:19, 1 Kings 20:42, Psalms 137:8, Psalms 137:9, Jeremiah 48:18, Revelation 18:21

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they utterly destroyed all that [was] in the city,.... All the inhabitants of it, by the direction of Joshua, and according to the order of the Lord, Deuteronomy 7:1; being guilty of capital crimes, which deserved death, as idolatry, incest, c.
both men and women, young and old neither sex nor age were spared:
and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword; in which creatures chiefly lay the substance of the eastern people; see Job 1:3.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Joshua 6:21. They utterly destroyed - both man, and woman, c. — As this act was ordered by God himself, who is the Maker and Judge of all men, it must be right: for the Judge of all the earth cannot do wrong. Nothing that breathed was permitted to live hence the oxen, sheep, and asses, were destroyed, as well as the inhabitants.
