וַיָּבֹ֤אוּ הַבָּנִים֙ וַיִּֽירְשׁ֣וּ אֶת־הָאָ֔רֶץ וַתַּכְנַ֨ע לִפְנֵיהֶ֜ם אֶת־יֹשְׁבֵ֤י הָאָ֙רֶץ֙ הַכְּנַ֣עֲנִ֔ים וַֽתִּתְּנֵ֖ם בְּיָדָ֑ם וְאֶת־מַלְכֵיהֶם֙ וְאֶת־עַֽמְמֵ֣י הָאָ֔רֶץ לַעֲשׂ֥וֹת בָּהֶ֖ם כִּרְצוֹנָֽם׃
Maka masuklah anak-anak mereka dan menduduki negeri itu. Engkau menundukkan di hadapan mereka penduduk negeri itu, yaitu orang Kanaan, dan Engkau menyerahkan mereka ke dalam tangan mereka, beserta raja-raja mereka dan bangsa-bangsa negeri itu, supaya mereka memperlakukan bangsa-bangsa itu sesuka hati mereka.
Aggadat Bereshit
Chapter (63) 64: Torah [1] "And it came to pass at that time that Judah went down" (Genesis 38:1). Like it is said in scriptures: "I will yet bring you, O inhabitants of Mareshah" (Micah 1:15). The Holy One, blessed be He, said to Israel, "Even though I made a covenant with your father Abraham and told him to 'Arise, walk through the land' (Genesis 13:17), and I did what I promised him, and gave him all the land, as it is said, 'And the children came and possessed the land' (Nehemiah 9:24), and also 'I brought you into a land of fruitful fields' (Jeremiah 2:7), a land that is soft and full, yet you angered Me and came and defiled My land, etc." (Jeremiah 2:7). "What shall I do with you? Behold, I will bring the nations against you, and they shall drive you out of your land. I will yet bring you, O inhabitants of Mareshah" (Micah 1:15). This is because you did not listen to the words of Micah the Morashtite, who prophesied in the days of Hezekiah, King of Judah, etc. (Jeremiah 26:18). Therefore, this is what will be done to them: "The heir to Israel will come, and the glory of Israel will not be snuffed out" (Micah 5:1). When Israel went into exile, they were stripped and made to wear rags until they reached their destination. Their enemies stripped them of their clothing and left them naked, as it is written: "The glory of Israel will come to you forever" (Micah 4:5). A person's honor is in their clothing. If you don't believe this, consider what is written: "I will strip you of your clothes and leave you naked" (Ezekiel 23:26). They were ashamed to be seen naked, as it was embarrassing for one person to see the shame of another. Jeremiah also says: "All her splendor has departed" (Lamentations 1:6), which teaches us that they went out without clothing, and splendor is nothing but clothing, as it is written: "This is the generation that wears clothing" (Isaiah 33:1). Their officers were like deer (Lamentations 1:6). Just as these rams go one after the other, and each one's head is behind the back of his fellow, and he sees his own shame, so too did the Israelites see the shame of each and every one of them, but not their own shame, because they were stripped and in collars, until they arrived at eternity. Their enemies would strip them of their clothing and leave them naked, as it says, "until eternity the honor of Israel will come" (Micah 4:5). From the beginning, the tribe of Judah hinted to them that this is what would happen to them when they arrived at "World to come" [edit. actual word is 1. עדולם Adullam = "justice of the people. 2. a town of the Canaanites allotted to Judah and lying in the lowlands; site of the cave where David hid.]
