Joshua 6:17

Context
6:17 The city and all that is in it must be set apart for the Lord, 1  except for Rahab the prostitute and all who are with her in her house, because she hid the spies 2  we sent.

Joshua 6:24

Context
6:24 But they burned 3  the city and all that was in it, except for the silver, gold, and bronze and iron items they put in the treasury of the Lord’s house. 4 

1 tn Or “dedicated to the Lord.”

sn To make the city set apart for the Lord would involve annihilating all the people and animals and placing its riches in the Lord’s treasury (vv. 19, 21, 24).

2 tn Heb “messengers.”

3 tn The Hebrew text adds “with fire.”

4 tn Heb “the treasury of the house of the Lord.” Technically the Lord did not have a “house” yet, so perhaps this refers to the tabernacle using later terminology.
