So not a man was left in Ai or Bethel who had not gone out after Israel, and they left the city unguarded and pursued Israel. (NASB ©1995)

Joshua 8:16 And all the people who were in the city were called together to pursue them, and they pursued Joshua and were drawn away from the city.

Joshua 8:18 Then the LORD said to Joshua, "Stretch out the javelin that is in your hand toward Ai, for I will give it into your hand." So Joshua stretched out the javelin that was in his hand toward the city. (NASB ©1995)


And there was not a man left in Ai or Bethel, that went not out after Israel: and they left the city open, and pursued after Israel.

Bethel Bethel is not mentioned in the Greek version, and some, with Houbigant and Pilkington, think it was not originally in the Hebrew; because, had the men of Bethel pursued, as well as those of Ai, it would have been said that they left the cities, and not the city open. The principal strength of Bethel might have been previously taken into Ai, as the strongest place to make a stand in; Bethel being but about three miles westward from Ai.
