11<\/strong>. tributary<\/em> ] Heb. la-mas. Mas<\/em> means a body of forced labourers, e.g. of Israelites in Egypt, Exo 1:11<\/span>, or of Solomon’s levies for work in Lebanon and upon his buildings, 1Ki 5:13<\/span> (27), Deu 9:15<\/span>; but frequently of the Canaanite peoples surviving among Israel, J, Jos 16:10<\/span>; Jos 17:13<\/span>, Jdg 1:30<\/span>; Jdg 1:33<\/span>; Jdg 1:35<\/span>; while both J and P say that the Gibeonites who were admitted to league with Israel upon their statement that they had come from a distance, were, on the discovery of their fraud, condemned to be hewers of wood and drawers of water. Such forced labour was recognised as the natural fate of the defeated, Isa 31:8<\/span>.<\/p>\n By their purses, and by their labours too, as appears from 1Ki 9:15<\/span>; 2Ch 8:7<\/span>,8<\/span> <\/P> <\/p>\n And it shall be, if it make thee answer of peace<\/strong>,…. Comply with the terms of peace offered:<\/p>\n and open unto thee<\/strong>; the gates of the city and its garrisons, and deliver all into their hands:<\/p>\n then it shall be that all the people that is found therein<\/strong>; some having made their escape before the surrender of the city:<\/p>\n shall be tributaries unto thee<\/strong>: pay a yearly tax imposed upon them, as the Moabites sometimes did, and which was paid in lambs and rams with the wool, 2Ki 3:4<\/span><\/p>\n and they shall serve thee<\/strong>; not as slaves, or be in continual bondage and servitude; but upon occasion be called out to any public service, as joining them against their enemies, rebuilding palaces and cities, or repairing walls of cities, and the like; and in general acknowledge their dominion over them, and their own subjection to them, by paying an annual tribute, or sending gifts unto them; thus the Moabites, Syrians, and Edomites, became the servants of David, 2Sa 8:2<\/span>.<\/p>\n 11<\/strong>. <\/strong> If answer of peace, tributaries <\/strong> If the city opened its gates and peacefully surrendered, all the inhabitants were to be spared, but they were to be tributaries of the Israelites.<\/p>\n Ver. <\/em><\/strong>11. <\/strong>If it make thee answer of peace<\/em><\/strong><\/strong> i.e. Accept of the conditions offered to them, which, we are told, were three: first, that they should renounce idolatry; secondly, become subjects to the Jews; and thirdly, pay them an annual tribute. See Selden de Jure N. & G. lib. 6: cap. 14. It is thought by some eminent critics, (Calmet, Le Clerc, Poole, &c.) that this offer could not be made to the devoted nations of Canaan. But Maimonides and many of the Jewish writers are of the contrary opinion; and assert, that Joshua sent three deputations to the people of Canaan, two with offers of peace, the third with a declaration of war. See Maimonides, as quoted by Cunaeus, de Rep. Heb. lib. 2: cap. 20. <\/p>\n Deu 20:11 And it shall be, if it make thee answer of peace, and open unto thee, then it shall be, [that] all the people [that is] found therein shall be tributaries unto thee, and they shall serve thee.<\/p>\n Ver. 11. And open unto thee.<\/strong> ] As Tournay in France did to our Henry VIII, with ten thousand pound sterling for the citizens’ redemption; yet was it ever till then counted so invincible, that this sentence was engraven over one of the gates, Iannes ton me a perda ton pucellage,<\/em> thou hast never lost thy maidenhead. a<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n a<\/em> Speed’s Hist of Engl., <\/em> 1001.<\/p>\n tributaries: Lev 25:42-46, Jos 9:22, Jos 9:23, Jos 9:27, Jos 11:19, Jos 11:20, Jos 16:10, Jdg 1:28, Jdg 1:30-35, 1Ki 9:21, 1Ki 9:22, Psa 120:7, Luk 19:14 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Deu 2:26 – with words Deu 7:2 – make no Jos 9:6 – We be Jos 9:8 – General Jos 9:15 – made peace Jos 17:13 – put the Jdg 11:12 – sent messengers 2Sa 20:18 – They were wont 2Ki 6:22 – wouldest<\/p>\n 20:11 And it shall be, if it make thee answer of {e} peace, and open unto thee, then it shall be, [that] all the people [that is] found therein shall be tributaries unto thee, and they shall serve thee.<\/p>\n (e) If it accept peace.<\/p>\n And it shall be, if it make thee answer of peace, and open unto thee, then it shall be, [that] all the people [that is] found therein shall be tributaries unto thee, and they shall serve thee. 11. tributary ] Heb. la-mas.
