Joshua 10:31
Lachish.Lachish was also situated in the south of Judah, seven miles south from Eleutheropolis, according to Eusebius and Jerome. It appears to have been anciently a very strong place; for though the people were panic struck, and the Israelites flushed with success, yet Joshua could not reduce it till the second day; and the king of Assyria afterwards was obliged to raise the siege. 3,5; 12:11; 15:39; 2Ki 19:8; 2Ch 11:9; Isa 37:8; Mic 1:13
