Now we are come to that place where the long parenthesis (which I before admonished you of) endeth. And whatsoever followeth after these words: The children of Judah fighting against Jerusalem took it.1 &c. to this place, are declared by a parenthesis. For all those things happened not after the death of Joshua, but when he was yet living. And now the history returneth to that setting forward to battle which they of Judah and the Symeonites took in hand, stirred up by the oracle of God. And therefore it is written: And Judah went with Simeon his brother, and smote the Canaanites dwelling ⟨image 37⟩in Zephat, and utterly destroyed it, and called the name of the City Horma. 2The Hebrews did not utterly throw down nor destroy certain cities which they possessed, but dwelled in them.

And to the Romans he wished him self to be made a curse for the brethren. And to the first of the Corinthians he saith: he ye loveth not the lord Jesus, let him be accursed, Maranatha, where he taketh this word [Greek or Hebrew] for this word Cherem, that is, a thing separated and seioyned utterly from mans occupying or use, so that it was wicked either to touch it, or to put it to any use. Wherefore we have a testimony in the book of Joshua,
