Joshua 8:17 Context
15And Ioshua and all Israel made as if they were beaten before them, and fled by the way of the wildernesse. 16And all the people that were in Ai, were called together to pursue after them: and they pursued after Ioshua, and were drawen away from the city. 17And there was not a man left in Ai or Bethel, that went not out after Israel: and they left the citie open, and pursued after Israel. 18And the Lord said vnto Ioshua, Stretch out the speare that is in thy hand, toward Ai; for I will giue it into thine hand. And Ioshua stretched out the speare that hee had in his hand, toward the city. 19And the ambush arose quickly out of their place, and they ranne as soone as he had stretched out his hand: and they entred into the city, and tooke it, and hasted, and set the citie on fire.
