Deuteronomy 20:11

Context

Deuteronomy 29:9

Context
The Present Covenant Setting

29:9 “Therefore, keep the terms 3  of this covenant and obey them so that you may be successful in everything you do.

1 tn Heb “if it answers you peace.”

2 tn Heb “become as a vassal and will serve you.” The Hebrew term translated slaves (מַס, mas) refers either to Israelites who were pressed into civil service, especially under Solomon (1 Kgs 5:27; 9:15, 21; 12:18), or (as here) to foreigners forced as prisoners of war to become slaves to Israel. The Gibeonites exemplify this type of servitude (Josh 9:3-27; cf. Josh 16:10; 17:13; Judg 1:28, 30-35; Isa 31:8; Lam 1:1).

3 tn Heb “words.”
