‏ 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. Josh 10:3, Josh 10:5, Josh 12:11, Josh 15:39; 2Kgs 19:8; 2Chr 11:9; Isa 37:8; Mic 1:13
