Commentaries

Matthew Henry's Commentary

11:10-14 The Canaanites filled up the measure of their iniquity, and were, as a judgment, left to the pride, obstinacy, and enmity of their hearts, and to the power of Satan; all restraints being withdrawn, while the dispensations of Providence tended to drive them to despair. They brought on themselves the vengeance they justly merited, of which the Israelites were to be executioners, by the command the Lord gave to Moses.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown

11. he burnt Hazor with fire—calmly and deliberately, doubtless, according to divine direction.
