Joshua 11:8

1 tn Or “caused to panic.”

2 tn Heb “he.” The referent is probably Israel (mentioned at the end of the previous sentence in the verse; cf. NIV, NRSV), but it is also possible that the Lord should be understood as the referent (cf. NASB “and He slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon”), or even Joshua (cf. NEB “and Joshua defeated them utterly in Gibeon”).

3 tn Heb “struck them down with a great striking down.”

4 tn Or “ascent.”

5 map For location see Map1 A1; JP3 F3; JP4 F3.

6 tn The meaning of the Hebrew name “Misrephoth Maim” is perhaps “lime-kilns by the water” (see HALOT 2:641).
