Komentarz do Liczb 21:32
וַיִּשְׁלַ֤ח מֹשֶׁה֙ לְרַגֵּ֣ל אֶת־יַעְזֵ֔ר וַֽיִּלְכְּד֖וּ בְּנֹתֶ֑יהָ ויירש [וַיּ֖וֹרֶשׁ] אֶת־הָאֱמֹרִ֥י אֲשֶׁר־שָֽׁם׃
I posłał Mojżesz wypatrywać Jazer, - i zdobyli przyległości jego; i wypędził on Emorejczyków tamecznych.
Rashi on Numbers
וישלח משה לרגל את יעזר AND MOSES SENT TO SPY OUT JAAZER — The spies captured it (as the text goes on to state, “and they captured it”). They said: We will not do as the former spies, for we have confidence in the power of Moses’ prayer to be able to fight against it (Midrash Tanchuma, Chukat 24).

Siftei Chakhamim
The spies captured it. Since it is written “they captured its surrounding villages” with וילכדו ["they captured"] in the plural form, rather than וילכד ["he captured"] in the singular form, as it does shortly where it is written ויורש ["and he inherited"] in the singular. Rather [this implies that] the spies captured the surrounding villages.
