made peace with them] Not expressing any condition of persons, lands, liberty or goods (as it was lawfull to have done with other nations which were not Canaanites) but onely the saving of their lives. And this peace seemeth lawfull, namely, if they would sue for this peace, abjure their idolatry, embrace the true religion of the Jews, and submit themselves, their lands, goods, and all they had to their Dominion: So Rahab, Judg. 2. 12. 14. See Deuteronomy 2:26. Joshua 11:20. 2 Sam. 21. 5: 1. 2, 9, 14. Deuteronomy 20:10. By all which places it appeareth, that they onely of the Canaanites were devoted to utter destruction, who would not seek for peace on the former conditions.
