Commentary on Joshua 12 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 12
This chapter is a summary of Israel's conquests.
Jos 12:1-6
Joshua, or whoever else is the historian before he comes to sum up the new conquests Israel had made, in these verses receives their former conquests in Moses's time, under whom they became masters of the great and potent kingdoms of Sihon and Og.
