And when the LORD thy God hath delivered it into thine hands, thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the sword:
Y cuando el SEÑOR tu Dios te haya dado la victoria sobre la ciudad, matarás a espada a todo varón que haya en ella.
Dios ordenó que en la guerra se matara a todos los hombres de las ciudades conquistadas.
📚 Contexto Histórico

This verse specifically addresses the conquest of cities that refused peace, commanding the destruction of males as part of God's judgment on those societies. It reflects the ancient Near Eastern context of total war, where such tactics were common to eliminate threats and secure the land.
