Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Joshua 10:30
And the LORD delivered it also, and the king thereof, into the hand of Israel; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that [were] therein; he let none remain in it; but did unto the king thereof as he did unto the king of Jericho.
All the souls, i.e. the human souls; for all the cattle they had for a prey.

And the Lord delivered it also, and the king thereof, into the hand of Israel,…. At once, no opposition being made that we read of:
and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that [were] therein, he let none remain in it; that is, Israel smote it, or Joshua, and indeed both; and this was according to the orders given them to be observed with respect to all the cities and nations of Canaan; and that because of their abominable sins and wickedness, and to make way and room for the people of Israel, De 7:1;
but did unto the king thereof as he did unto the king of Jericho: slew him with the inhabitants.
