The entry belongs to the record of Israel's victories in the conquest of the land, won while Joshua led Israel with the Captain of Jehovah's hosts present with him. It stands within Joshua 11-21, the account of the division and settling of the Promised Land among the tribes, and its list of conquered kings forms part of that settling. That settling also exposes Israel's lack of faith and slowness in taking possession. Yet it closes with the assurance that God wrought all He had promised, and there failed not aught of any good thing He had spoken.
