2 Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai (which is located near Beth Aven, east of Bethel) and instructed them, |Go up and spy on the land.| So the men went up and spied on Ai. 3 They returned and reported to Joshua, |Don't send the whole army. About two or three thousand men are adequate to defeat Ai. Don't tire out the whole army, for Ai is small.| Joshua 7:2-3, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
