📚 Contexto Histórico
This verse refers to Joshua's treaty with the Gibeonites, who had deceived Israel by pretending to be from a distant land when they were actually nearby Canaanites. According to God's commands, Israel was supposed to completely destroy the Canaanite peoples, but the Gibeonites tricked them into making this peace agreement. Even though the treaty was made through deception, Joshua and the leaders honored their oath because it was made in God's name.
