- Joshua 11:1
Now when Jabin king of Hazor heard about these things, he sent word to Jobab king of Madon; to the kings of Shimron and Achshaph;
Commentary on Joshua 11:12 voices
And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor had heard these things,.... The taking of Jericho and Ai, the defeat of the five kings, and the conquest of the southern part of the land of Canaan; he was alarmed by them, and sent to all the northern kings to join with him against Israel; and he the rather took this upon him, because as Adonizedek king of Jerusalem was the principal king in the southern part of the land, so was he in the northern part; see Jos 11:10; Hazor fell to the tribe of Naphtali, Jos 19:
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
In prior readings, the king of Jerusalem had assembled four other kings with him against Jesus [Joshua] and against the sons of Israel. But now no longer does someone assemble four or five; on the contrary, see how great a multitude one person assembles.…You see how many swarms of opposing powers and of malicious demons may be stirred up against Jesus [Joshua] and the Israelite army. Before the coming of our Lord and Savior, all those demons, undisturbed and secure, were occupying human spirits and ruled in their minds and bodies.

- Joshua 11:11
The Israelites put everyone in Hazor to the sword, devoting them to destruction. Nothing that breathed remained, and Joshua burned down Hazor itself.
Commentary on Joshua 11:111 voice
And they smote all the souls that were therein with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them,.... Men, women, and children: there was not any left to breathe; any human creature; for as for the cattle they were taken for a prey: and he burnt Hazor with fire; as he did Jericho and Ai, though no other cities he had taken; but it seems that this city, though burnt, was built again and inhabited by Canaanites, who had a king over them of the same name with this in the times of Deborah, Jdg 4:2.

- Joshua 11:13
Yet Israel did not burn any of the cities built on their mounds, except Hazor, which Joshua burned.
Commentary on Joshua 11:132 voices
Render: But the cities standing each on its own hill (compare Jer 30:18). The meaning is simply that, with the exception of Hazor, Joshua did not burn the cities, but left them standing, each on its former site. This site is spoken of as a hill, because such was the ordinary site chosen for cities in Canaan (compare Mat 5:14).

Commentary on Joshua 12:192 voices
The king of Madon, one,.... Whose name was Jobab, Jos 11:1, the king of Hazor, one; whose name was Jabin, and of him and his city; see Gill on Jos 11:1.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
And if "a wise man shall understand the words from his own mouth and shall hear knowledge on his lips," we must either declare rashly that the prophets were not wise, if they have not understood "the words from their own mouth," or admit that the prophets were wise, because they have received what is correct and true and have understood "the words from their own mouth" and borne knowledge on their lips.

- Joshua 15:23
Kedesh, Hazor, Ithnan,
Commentary on Joshua 15:231 voice
And Kedesh,.... The first of these cities seems to be Kadeshbarnea, which was to the south of the land, and on the borders of Edom, from whence the spies were sent, Num 32:8, and Hazor is another city from that which is mentioned, Jos 11:1; and was in the tribe of Naphtali: and Ithnan, which Jerom (c) calls Jedna, was, according to him, six miles from Eleutheropolis, as you go to Hebron; the Greek version joins this and the former city together, and makes them one. (c) De loc. Heb. fol. 92. H.

- Joshua 19:36
Adamah, Ramah, Hazor,
Commentary on Joshua 19:361 voice
And Adamah,.... Adamah is different from Adami, Jos 19:33; and may seem to confirm the notion of some, that Nekeb there is an epithet of it, and so distinguishes it from Adamah here: and Ramah; of Ramah, as there were several places of this name; see Gill on Jos 19:29, and Hazor was a royal city, of which; see Gill on Jos 11:1.

But they forgot the LORD their God, and He sold them into the hand of Sisera the commander of the army of Hazor, and into the hands of the Philistines and the king of Moab, who fought against them.
Commentary on 1 Samuel 12:92 voices
Enumerating these same mercies, he says: "How Jacob entered into Egypt, and our fathers cried out to the Lord, and the Lord sent Moses and Aaron, and He brought our fathers out of Egypt, and settled them in this place. And because they forgot the Lord their God, He delivered them into the hand of Sisera, the commander of the army of Asshur, and into the hands of the Philistines, and of the king of Moab, and they fought against you.

John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Levy - See the marginal reference note. Millo - See 2Sa 5:9 note. The Septuagint commonly render the word ἡ ἄκρα hē akra, the citadel, and it may possibly have been the fortress on Mount Zion connected with the Maccabean struggles (1 Macc. 4:41; 13:49-52). Its exact site has not been determined. And the wall of Jerusalem - Davids fortification 2Sa 5:9; 1Ch 11:8 had been hasty, and had now - fifty years later - fallen into decay. Solomon therefore had to repair the breaches of the city of David 1Ki 11:
