Commentary on Joshua 10:5

Theological / Devotional

Amorites. This term is often taken generally for any of the Canaanitish nations, probably because the Amorites were the most powerful people of the country. The inhabitants of Jerusalem were called Jebusites (Joshua 15:63); and those of Hebron, Hittites (Genesis 23:2, 3; 25:9, 10). The Gibeonites are sometimes called Hivites (Joshua 9:7), and occasionally Amorites.
