Joshua 8:29New Messianic Version BibleAnd the king of ‘Ai [Heap of Ruins] he hanged on a tree until eventide: and as soon as the sun was down, Y’hoshua [Yehovah is Salvation] commanded that they should take his carcass down from the tree, and cast it at the entering of the gate of the city, and raise thereon a great heap of stones, [that remains] unto this day. See the chapter |
And the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) delivered it also, and the king thereof, into the hand of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]; and he struck it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that [were] in it; he let none remain in it; but did unto the king thereof as he did unto the king of Yericho [Its Moon].
The Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the stake (cross) on the Shabbat [rest] day, (for that Shabbat [rest] day was an high day,) besought Pilate [armed with a spear] that their legs might be broken, and [that] they might be taken away.
