The Bible presents war as a reality of the fallen world, sometimes as a means of executing God's justice or fulfilling His purposes.<br><br><b>Old Testament Overview</b> <br>The Old Testament is replete with accounts of war, often involving the Israelites as they settled in the Promised Land. God commanded the Israelites to engage in warfare to conquer Canaan, as seen in the Book of Joshua. <a href="/joshua/6-2.htm">Joshua 6:2-5</a> describes God's instructions for the battle of Jericho: "Then the LORD said to Joshua, 'See, I have delivered Jericho into your hands, along with its king and its mighty men of valor. March around the city with all the men of war, circling the city one time. Do this for six days. Have seven priests carry seven rams&#8217; horns in front of the ark. On the seventh day, march around the city seven times, while the priests blow the horns.'"<br><br>War was also a tool for divine judgment. In <a href="/1_samuel/15-2.htm">1 Samuel 15:2-3</a>, God commands Saul to destroy the Amalekites: "This is what the LORD of Hosts says: 'I witnessed what the Amalekites did to the Israelites when they ambushed them on their way up from Egypt. Now go and attack the Amalekites and devote to destruction all that belongs to them.'"<br><br><b>New Testament Perspective</b> <br>The New Testament shifts focus from physical warfare to spiritual warfare. <a href="/ephesians/6-12.htm">Ephesians 6:12</a> emphasizes this transition: "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world&#8217;s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." Believers are called to put on the "full armor of God" (<a href="/ephesians/6-11.htm">Ephesians 6:11</a>) to stand firm against spiritual adversaries.<br><br>Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, taught principles of love and forgiveness, urging His followers to turn the other cheek (<a href="/matthew/5-39.htm">Matthew 5:39</a>) and love their enemies (<a href="/matthew/5-44.htm">Matthew 5:44</a>). However, the New Testament does not entirely dismiss the concept of war, as seen in Revelation, where Christ returns as a warrior to defeat evil (<a href="/revelation/19-11.htm">Revelation 19:11-16</a>).<br><br><b>Theological Implications</b> <br>War in the Bible often serves as a backdrop for God's sovereignty and justice. It underscores the seriousness of sin and the lengths to which God will go to fulfill His covenant promises. The biblical narrative acknowledges the harsh realities of war while pointing to a future where peace will ultimately prevail through Christ's reign.<br><br><b>Ethical Considerations</b> <br>The Bible presents a complex view of war, balancing divine justice with the call to peace. Christians are encouraged to seek peace and pursue it (<a href="/psalms/34-14.htm">Psalm 34:14</a>) while recognizing the fallen nature of the world that sometimes necessitates conflict. The challenge lies in discerning when war aligns with God's will and when it contradicts His call to love and reconciliation.<br><br><b>Key Figures and Events</b> <br>&#183; <b>Joshua</b>: Led the Israelites in the conquest of Canaan.<br>&#183; <b>David</b>: A warrior king who expanded Israel's territory and established Jerusalem as its capital.<br>&#183; <b>Gideon</b>: Defeated the Midianites with a small army, demonstrating God's power in battle (Judges 7).<br>&#183; <b>Jephthah</b>: A judge who led Israel to victory against the Ammonites (Judges 11).<br><br><b>Prophetic and Eschatological Views</b> <br>Prophets like Isaiah and Micah envision a future where nations "will beat their swords into plowshares" (<a href="/isaiah/2-4.htm">Isaiah 2:4</a>, <a href="/micah/4-3.htm">Micah 4:3</a>), symbolizing the end of war and the establishment of God's eternal peace. Revelation describes the ultimate defeat of evil, culminating in a new heaven and earth where war is no more (<a href="/revelation/21-4.htm">Revelation 21:4</a>).<br><br><b>Conclusion</b> <br>While the Bible acknowledges the reality of war, it ultimately points to a future hope where peace reigns supreme under the lordship of Christ. Believers are called to navigate the tension between living in a world marred by conflict and anticipating the peace of God's kingdom.<a name="top" id="top"></a><div class="vheading2">Topical Bible Verses</div><span class="rtext"><a href="/ecclesiastes/3-8.htm">Ecclesiastes 3:8</a></span><br>A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.<br><span class="source">Topicalbible.org</span><p><span class="rtext"><a href="/1_samuel/30-8.htm">1 Samuel 30:8</a></span><br>And David inquired at the LORD, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them?

[<a href="../a/army.htm">ARMY</a>] In (<a href="/1_kings/9-22.htm">1 Kings 9:22</a>) at a period (Solomon's reign) when the organization of the army was complete, we have apparently a list of the various gradations of rank in the service, as follows: <ol> <li>"Men of war" = <i>privates</i> ;</li> <li>"servants," the lowest rank of officers --<i>lieutenants</i> ;</li> <li>"princes" = <i>captains</i> ;</li> <li>"captains," perhaps = <i>staff officers</i> ;</li> <li>"rulers of the chariots and his horsemen" = <i>cavalry officers</i> . Formal proclamations of war were not interchanged between the belligerents. Before entering the enemy's district spies were seat to ascertain the character of the country and the preparations of its inhabitants for resistance. (<a href="/numbers/13-17.htm">Numbers 13:17</a>; <a href="/joshua/2-1.htm">Joshua 2:1</a>; <a href="/judges/7-10.htm">Judges 7:10</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/26-4.htm">1 Samuel 26:4</a>) The combat assumed the form of a number of hand-to-hand contests; hence the high value attached to fleetness of foot and strength of arm. (<a href="/2_samuel/1-23.htm">2 Samuel 1:23</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/2-18.htm">2:18</a>; <a href="/1_chronicles/12-8.htm">1 Chronicles 12:8</a>) At the same time various strategic devices were practiced, such as the ambuscade, (<a href="/joshua/8-2.htm">Joshua 8:2,12</a>; <a href="/judges/20-36.htm">Judges 20:36</a>) surprise, (<a href="/judges/7-16.htm">Judges 7:16</a>) or circumvention. (<a href="/2_samuel/5-23.htm">2 Samuel 5:23</a>) Another mode of settling the dispute was by the selection of champions, (<a href="/1_samuel/17-1.htm">1 Samuel 17</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/2-14.htm">2 Samuel 2:14</a>) who were spurred on to exertion by the offer of high reward. (<a href="/1_samuel/17-25.htm">1 Samuel 17:25</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/18-25.htm">18:25</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/18-11.htm">2 Samuel 18:11</a>; <a href="/1_chronicles/11-6.htm">1 Chronicles 11:6</a>) The contest having been decided, the conquerors were recalled from the pursuit by the sound of a trumpet. (<a href="/2_samuel/2-28.htm">2 Samuel 2:28</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/18-16.htm">18:16</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/20-22.htm">20:22</a>) The siege of a town or fortress was conducted in the following manner: A line of circumvallation was drawn round the place, (<a href="/ezekiel/4-2.htm">Ezekiel 4:2</a>; <a href="/micah/5-1.htm">Micah 5:1</a>) constructed out of the trees found in the neighborhood, (<a href="/deuteronomy/20-20.htm">20:20</a>) together with earth and any other materials at hand. This line not only cut off the besieged from the surrounding country, but also served as a base of operations for the besiegers. The next step was to throw out from this line one or more mounds or "banks" in the direction of the city, (<a href="/2_samuel/20-15.htm">2 Samuel 20:15</a>; <a href="/2_kings/19-32.htm">2 Kings 19:32</a>; <a href="/isaiah/37-33.htm">Isaiah 37:33</a>) which were gradually increased in height until they were about half as high as the city wall. On this mound or bank towers were erected, (<a href="/2_kings/25-1.htm">2 Kings 25:1</a>; <a href="/jeremiah/52-4.htm">Jeremiah 52:4</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/4-2.htm">Ezekiel 4:2</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/17-17.htm">17:17</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/21-22.htm">21:22</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/26-8.htm">26:8</a>) whence the slingers and archers might attack with effect. <i>Catapults</i> were prepared for hurling large darts and stones; and the <i>crow</i> , a long spar, with iron claws at one end and ropes at the other, to pull down stones or men from the top of the wall. <i>Battering-rams</i> , (<a href="/ezekiel/4-2.htm">Ezekiel 4:2</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/21-22.htm">21:22</a>) were brought up to the walls by means of the bank, and scaling-ladders might also be placed on it. The treatment of the conquered was extremely severe in ancient times. The bodies of the soldiers killed in action were plundered, (<a href="/1_samuel/31-8.htm">1 Samuel 31:8</a>) 2 Macc 8:27; the survivors were either killed in some savage manner, (<a href="/judges/9-45.htm">Judges 9:45</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/12-31.htm">2 Samuel 12:31</a>; <a href="/2_chronicles/25-12.htm">2 Chronicles 25:12</a>) mutilated, (<a href="/judges/9-45.htm">Judges 9:45</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/12-31.htm">2 Samuel 12:31</a>; <a href="/2_chronicles/25-12.htm">2 Chronicles 25:12</a>) mutilated, (<a href="/judges/1-6.htm">Judges 1:6</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/11-2.htm">1 Samuel 11:2</a>) or carried into captivity.

See <a href="../a/amalekites.htm">AMALEKITES</a> and <a href="../c/canaan.htm">CANAAN</a>. </p><p>By this scourge, subsequently to the conquest of Canaan, God chastised both his own rebellious people and the corrupt and oppressive idolaters around them. In many cases, moreover, the issue was distinctly made between the true God and idols; as with the Philistines, <a href="/context/1_samuel/17-43.htm">1 Samuel 17:43-47</a>; the Syrians, <a href="/context/1_kings/20-23.htm">1 Kings 20:23-30</a>; the Assyrians, <a href="/context/2_kings/19-10.htm">2 Kings 19:10-19</a>,35; and the Ammonites, <a href="/context/2_chronicles/20-1.htm">2 Chronicles 20:1-30</a>. Hence God often raised up champions for his people, gave them counsel in war by Urim and by prophets, and miraculously aided them in battle. </p><p>Before the period of the kings, there seems to have been scarcely any regular army among the Jews; but all who were able to bear arms were liable to be summoned to the field, <a href="/1_samuel/11-7.htm">1 Samuel 11:7</a>. The vast armies of the kings of Judah and Israel usually fought on foot, armed with spears, swords, and shields; having large bodies of archers and slingers, and comparatively few chariots and horsemen. See <a href="../a/arms.htm">ARMS</a>. </p><p>The forces were arranged in suitable divisions, with officers of tens, hundreds, thousands, etc., Jud 20:10 <a href="/1_chronicles/13-1.htm">1 Chronicles 13:1</a> <a href="/2_chronicles/25-5.htm">2 Chronicles 25:5</a>. The Jews were fully equal to the nations around them in bravery and the arts of war; but were restrained from wars of conquest, and when invaders had been repelled the people dispersed to their homes. A campaign usually commenced in spring, and was terminated before winter, <a href="/2_samuel/11-1.htm">2 Samuel 11:1</a> <a href="/1_kings/20-22.htm">1 Kings 20:22</a>. As the Jewish host approached a hostile army, the priests cheered them by addresses, De 20:2 1Sa 7:9,13, and by inspiring songs, <a href="/2_chronicles/20-21.htm">2 Chronicles 20:21</a>.

The battles of the ancients were exceedingly sanguinary, <a href="/2_chronicles/28-6.htm">2 Chronicles 28:6</a>; few were spared except those reserved to grace the triumph or be sold as slaves. A victorious army of Jews on returning was welcomed by the whole population with every demonstration of joy, <a href="/context/1_samuel/18-6.htm">1 Samuel 18:6</a>,7. The spoils were divided after reserving an oblation for the Lord, <a href="/numbers/31-50.htm">Numbers 31:50</a> Jud 5:30; trophies were suspended in public places; eulogies were pronounced in honor of the most distinguished warriors, and lamentations over the dead. </p><p>In besieging a walled city, numerous towers were usually erected around it for throwing missiles; catapults were prepared for hurling large darts and stones. Large towers were also constructed and mounds near to the city walls, and raised if possible to an equal or greater height, that by casting a movable bridge across access to the city might be gained. The battering-ram was also employed to effect a breach in the wall; and the crow, a long spar with iron claws at one end and ropes at the other, to pull down stones or men from the top of the wall. These and similar modes of assault the besieged resisted by throwing down darts, stones, heavy rocks, and sometimes boiling oil; but hanging sacks of chaff between the battering-ram and the wall; by strong and sudden sallies, capturing and burning the towers and enginery of the assailants, and quickly retreating into the city, <a href="/context/2_chronicles/26-14.htm">2 Chronicles 26:14</a>,15. The modern inventions of gunpowder, rifles, bombs, and heavy artillery have changed all this. See <a href="../b/battering-ram.htm">BATTERING-RAM</a>. </p><p>As the influence of Christianity diffuses itself in the world, war is becoming less excusable and less practicable; and a great advance may be observed from the customs and spirit of ancient barbarism towards the promised universal supremacy of the Prince of peace, <a href="/psalms/46-9.htm">Psalm 46:9</a> <a href="/isaiah/2-4.htm">Isaiah 2:4</a> <a href="/micah/4-3.htm">Micah 4:3</a>. </p><p>"Wars of the Lord" was probably the name of an uninspired book, long since lost, containing details of the events alluded to in <a href="/context/numbers/21-14.htm">Numbers 21:14-15</a>. </p><a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>The Israelites had to take possession of the Promised Land by conquest. They had to engage in a long and bloody war before the Canaanitish tribes were finally subdued. Except in the case of Jericho and Ai, the war did not become aggressive till after the death of Joshua. Till then the attack was always first made by the Canaanites. Now the measure of the iniquity of the Canaanites was full, and Israel was employed by God to sweep them away from off the face of the earth. In entering on this new stage of the war, the tribe of Judah, according to divine direction, took the lead.<p>In the days of Saul and David the people of Israel engaged in many wars with the nations around, and after the division of the kingdom into two they often warred with each other. They had to defend themselves also against the inroads of the Egyptians, the Assyrians, and the Babylonians.

The Hebrews were the people of Yahweh, and they were reminded in their wars by the priest or priests who accompanied their armies that Yahweh was with them to fight their battles (<a href="/deuteronomy/20-1.htm">Deuteronomy 20:1-4</a>). It was customary to open a campaign, or to enter an engagement, with sacrificial rites (<a href="/1_samuel/7-8.htm">1 Samuel 7:8-10</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/13-9.htm">1 Samuel 13:9</a>). Hence, in the Prophets, to "prepare" war is to carry out the initiatory religious rites and therefore to "sanctify" war (<a href="/jeremiah/6-4.htm">Jeremiah 6:4</a>; <a href="/jeremiah/22-7.htm">Jeremiah 22:7</a>; <a href="/jeremiah/51-27.htm">Jeremiah 51:27, 28</a> <a href="/micah/3-5.htm">Micah 3:5</a> <a href="/joel/3-9.htm">Joel 3:9</a>; the Revised Version margin in each case); and Isaiah even speaks of Yahweh mustering His host and summoning to battle His "consecrated ones" (<a href="/isaiah/13-3.htm">Isaiah 13:3</a>), the warriors consecrated by the sacrifices offered before the war actually opened. The religious character attaching to war explains also the taboo which we find associated with it (<a href="/deuteronomy/20-7.htm">Deuteronomy 20:7</a>; <a href="/deuteronomy/23-10.htm">Deuteronomy 23:10</a> <a href="/2_samuel/11-11.htm">2 Samuel 11:11</a>).<br><br>2. Preliminaries:<br><br>(1) Religious Preliminaries.<br><br>It was in keeping with this that the oracle should be consulted before a campaign, or an engagement (<a href="/judges/20-18.htm">Judges 20:18</a> <a href="/1_samuel/14-37.htm">1 Samuel 14:37</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/23-2.htm">1 Samuel 23:2</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/28-6.htm">1 Samuel 28:6</a>; 30:8). The ark of God was believed to be possessed of special virtue in assuring victory, and, because it was identified in the eyes of the Israelites with the presence of Yahweh, it was taken into battle (<a href="/1_samuel/4-3.htm">1 Samuel 4:3</a>). The people learned, however, by experience to put their trust in Yahweh Himself and not in any outward token of His presence. At the battle of Ebenezer the ark was taken into the fight with disastrous results to Israel (<a href="/1_samuel/4-4.htm">1 Samuel 4:4</a>). On the other hand at the battle of Michmash, the sacred ephod at Saul's request accompanied the Israelites into the field, and there was a great discomfiture of the Philistines (<a href="/1_samuel/14-18.htm">1 Samuel 14:18</a>). In the later history prophets were appealed to for guidance before a campaign (<a href="/1_kings/22-5.htm">1 Kings 22:5</a> <a href="/2_kings/3-11.htm">2 Kings 3:11</a>), although fanatical members of the order sometimes gave fatal advice, as to Ahab at Ramoth-gilead, and probably to Josiah at Megiddo. Upon occasion the king addressed the host before engaging the enemy (<a href="/2_chronicles/20-20.htm">2 Chronicles 20:20-22</a>, where Jehoshaphat also had singers to go before the army into battle); and Judas Maccabeus did so, with prayer to God, on various occasions (1 Maccabees 3:58; 4:30; 5:32).<br><br>(2) Military Preliminaries.<br><br>The call to arms was given by sound of trumpet throughout the land (<a href="/judges/3-27.htm">Judges 3:27</a>; <a href="/judges/6-34.htm">Judges 6:34</a> <a href="/1_samuel/13-3.htm">1 Samuel 13:3</a> <a href="/2_samuel/15-10.htm">2 Samuel 15:10</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/20-1.htm">2 Samuel 20:1</a>; compare <a href="/numbers/10-2.htm">Numbers 10:2</a>). It was the part of the priests to sound an alarm with the trumpets (<a href="/2_chronicles/13-12.htm">2 Chronicles 13:12-16</a>; compare 1 Maccabees 4:40; 16:8), and the trumpets were to be blown in time of battle to keep God in remembrance of Israel that they might gain the victory. In the Prophets, we find the commencement of war described as the drawing of the sword from its sheath (<a href="/ezekiel/21-3.htm">Ezekiel 21:3</a>), and the uncovering of the shield (<a href="/isaiah/22-6.htm">Isaiah 22:6</a>). Graphic pictures of the mobilizing of forces, both for invasion and for defense, are found in <a href="/isaiah/22-6.htm">Isaiah 22:6-8</a> and <a href="/nahum/3-2.htm">Nahum 3:2</a> and other Prophets. It was in the springtime that campaigns were usually opened, or resumed after a cessation of hostilities in winter (<a href="/2_samuel/11-1.htm">2 Samuel 11:1</a> <a href="/1_kings/20-22.htm">1 Kings 20:22, 26</a>).<br><br>3. Operations of War:<br><br>Of the actual disposition of troops in battle there are no full accounts till the Maccabean time, but an examination of the Biblical battlefields by modern travelers with knowledge of military history has yielded valuable results in showing the position of the combatants and the progress of the fight (an excellent example in Dr. William Miller's Least of All Lands, 85;, 116;, 150;, where the battles of Michmash, Elah and Gilboa are described with plans). With the Israelites the order of battle was simple. The force was drawn up, either in line, or in three divisions, a center and two wings. There was a rearguard (called in the King James Version "rereward," in the Revised Version (British and American) "rearward") to give protection on the march or to bring in stragglers (<a href="/judges/7-16.htm">Judges 7:16</a> <a href="/1_samuel/11-11.htm">1 Samuel 11:11</a> <a href="/2_samuel/18-2.htm">2 Samuel 18:2</a>; 1 Maccabees 5:33; compare also <a href="/numbers/10-25.htm">Numbers 10:25</a> <a href="/joshua/6-9.htm">Joshua 6:9</a> <a href="/1_samuel/29-2.htm">1 Samuel 29:2</a> <a href="/isaiah/58-8.htm">Isaiah 58:8</a>). The signal for the charge and the retreat was given by sound of trumpet. There was a battle-cry to inspire courage and to impart confidence (<a href="/judges/7-20.htm">Judges 7:20</a> <a href="/amos/1-14.htm">Amos 1:14</a>, etc.). The issue of the battle depended upon the personal courage and endurance of the combatants, fighting man against man, but there were occasions when the decision was left to single combat, as at the battle of Elah between the giant Goliath and the stripling David (<a href="/nasb/1_samuel/17.htm">1 Samuel 17</a>). The combat at Gibeon between the men of Benjamin, twelve in number, followers of Ish-bosheth, and twelve of the servants of David, in which each slew his man and all fell together by mutual slaughter, was the prelude to "a very sore battle" in which Abner and the men of Israel were beaten before the servants of David (<a href="/2_samuel/2-16.htm">2 Samuel 2:16</a>).<br><br>To the minor operations of war belong the raid, such as the Philistines made into the Valley of Rephaim (<a href="/1_chronicles/14-9.htm">1 Chronicles 14:9</a>), the foray, the object of which was plunder (<a href="/2_samuel/3-22.htm">2 Samuel 3:22</a>), the foraging to secure supplies (<a href="/2_samuel/23-11.htm">2 Samuel 23:11</a> margin), and the movements of bands who captured defenseless inhabitants and sold them as slaves (<a href="/2_kings/5-2.htm">2 Kings 5:2</a>).<br><br>4. Strategy:<br><br>Of strategical movements in war there was the ambush with liers-in-wait resorted to by Joshua at Ai (<a href="/joshua/8-3.htm">Joshua 8:3</a>); the feint, resorted to by the Israelites against the tribe of Benjamin (<a href="/judges/20-20.htm">Judges 20:20</a>); the flank movement, adopted by David in the Valley of Rephaim to rout the Philistines (<a href="/2_samuel/5-22.htm">2 Samuel 5:22 f</a>); and the surprise, inflicted successfully at the Waters of Merom upon the Canaanites under Jabin by Joshua (<a href="/joshua/11-1.htm">Joshua 11:1 f</a>). Of all these the story of Judas Maccabeus, the great military leader of the Jewish nation, furnishes illustrations (1 Maccabees 4:5 and elsewhere).<br><br>5. Important Requisites:<br><br>Among the requisites for the proper conduct of war the most important was the camp (machaneh). Of the exact configuration of the camp of the Israelites, it is not possible to speak with certainty. The camp of Israel in the wilderness seems to have been quadrilateral, although some have supposed it to be round or triangular (<a href="/numbers/2-1.htm">Numbers 2:1</a>). The camp in the wilderness was furnished with ensigns and standards-the family ensign ('oth), and a standard (deghel) for the group of tribes occupying each of the four sides. The standard or banner (nec) is used of the signal for the mustering of troops, but standard-bearer, which occurs only once in the Bible, is a doubtful reading (<a href="/isaiah/10-18.htm">Isaiah 10:18</a>, where the Revised Version margin, "sick man," is rather to be followed). In time of war the camp was surrounded by a barricade, or wagon-rampart (ma`gal), as at Elah (<a href="/1_samuel/17-20.htm">1 Samuel 17:20</a>); and Saul lay within such a barricade in the wilderness of Ziph with his people round about him when David surprised him and carried off his spear (<a href="/1_samuel/26-5.htm">1 Samuel 26:5</a>). Tents were used for the shelter of troops, at any rate when occupied with a siege (<a href="/2_kings/7-7.htm">2 Kings 7:7</a>), although at the siege of Rabbah we read of booths for the purpose (<a href="/2_samuel/11-11.htm">2 Samuel 11:11</a>). Pickets were set to watch the camp, and the watch was changed three times in the course of the night (<a href="/judges/7-19.htm">Judges 7:19</a>; 1 Maccabees 12:27). It was usual to leave a guard in charge of the camp when the force went into action or went off upon a raid (<a href="/1_samuel/25-13.htm">1 Samuel 25:13</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/30-10.htm">1 Samuel 30:10</a>). Careful prescriptions were laid down for the preservation of the purity of the camp, "for Yahweh thy God walketh in the midst of thy camp,.... therefore shall thy camp be holy" (<a href="/deuteronomy/23-9.htm">Deuteronomy 23:9-14</a>; compare <a href="/numbers/5-1.htm">Numbers 5:1-4</a>). Garrisons (matstsabh) were placed in occupation of fortresses and strategical centers (<a href="/2_chronicles/17-2.htm">2 Chronicles 17:2</a>). No doubt the caves in the hillsides and rocky fastnesses of the land, as at Michmash, would serve for their reception (<a href="/nasb/1_samuel/13.htm">1 Samuel 13</a>). The garrisons, however, which are expressly mentioned, were for the most part military posts for the occupation of a subject country-Philistines in Israelite territory (<a href="/1_samuel/13-23.htm">1 Samuel 13:23</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/14-1.htm">1 Samuel 14:1, 11</a>), and Israelites in Syrian and Edomite territory (<a href="/2_samuel/8-6.htm">2 Samuel 8:6, 14</a>).<br><br>6. Characteristics:<br><br>Among the characteristic notes of war, the tumult and the shouting were often noticed by the sacred historians (<a href="/1_samuel/4-6.htm">1 Samuel 4:6</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/14-19.htm">1 Samuel 14:19</a> <a href="/2_kings/7-6.htm">2 Kings 7:6</a>). In the figurative language of the prophets the terrors and horrors and devastation of war are set forth in lurid colors. "The snorting of his horses is heard from Dan," is Jeremiah's description of an invading army, "at the sound of the neighing of his strong ones the whole land trembleth" (<a href="/jeremiah/8-16.htm">Jeremiah 8:16</a>). `The crack of the whip and the noise of the rumbling wheel and the galloping horse, and the jolting chariot and the rearing horsemen; and the flash of the sword and the glitter of the spear, and the multitude of slain; and a mass of dead bodies and no end to the carcasses' (<a href="/nahum/3-2.htm">Nahum 3:2-4</a>: J. M. P. Smith's translation in ICC). Because of the devastation of territory and the slaughter of men which it entails, the sword is named with famine and "noisome beasts" (the American Standard Revised Version has "evil beasts") and "pestilence" as one of God's "four sore judgments" (<a href="/ezekiel/14-21.htm">Ezekiel 14:21</a>, the King James Version). By a familiar figure "the sword" is often taken for all the operations of war, because it is characteristic of it to devour and to destroy (<a href="/2_samuel/2-26.htm">2 Samuel 2:26</a> <a href="/jeremiah/2-30.htm">Jeremiah 2:30</a>).<br><br>7. Defeat and Victory:<br><br>While the treatment of the vanquished in the wars of Israel never reached the pitch of savagery common in Assyrian warfare, there are not wanting examples of excessive severity, such as David's treatment of his Moabite prisoners (<a href="/2_samuel/8-2.htm">2 Samuel 8:2</a>) and of the Ammonites captured at Rabbah (<a href="/2_samuel/12-31.htm">2 Samuel 12:31</a>), and Menahem's barbarous treatment of Tiphsah (<a href="/2_kings/15-16.htm">2 Kings 15:16</a>; compare <a href="/numbers/31-17.htm">Numbers 31:17</a> <a href="/joshua/6-21.htm">Joshua 6:21</a>). That it was common for the Philistines to mutilate and abuse their prisoners is shown by Saul's determination not to fall into their hands (<a href="/1_samuel/31-4.htm">1 Samuel 31:4</a>). On that occasion the Philistines not only stripped the slain, but cut off Saul's head and fixed his body to the wall of Bethshan (<a href="/1_samuel/31-9.htm">1 Samuel 31:9, 10</a>). It was usual to carry off prisoners and sell them as slaves (<a href="/2_kings/5-2.htm">2 Kings 5:2</a>; 1 Maccabees 3:41). The conquerors were wont to deport the population of the subjugated country (<a href="/2_kings/17-6.htm">2 Kings 17:6</a>), to carry off treasure and impose tribute (<a href="/2_kings/16-8.htm">2 Kings 16:8</a>), and even to take the gods into captivity (<a href="/isaiah/46-1.htm">Isaiah 46:1</a>). On the other hand, the victors were hailed with acclamations and songs of rejoicing (<a href="/1_samuel/18-6.htm">1 Samuel 18:6</a>), and victory was celebrated with public thanksgivings (<a href="/exodus/15-1.htm">Exodus 15:1</a> <a href="/judges/5-1.htm">Judges 5:1</a>; 1 Maccabees 4:24).<br><br>The spoils of war, spoken of as booty also-armor, clothing, jewelry, money, captives and animals-falling to the victors, were divided equally between those who had taken part in the battle and those who had been left behind in camp (<a href="/numbers/31-27.htm">Numbers 31:27</a> <a href="/joshua/22-8.htm">Joshua 22:8</a> <a href="/1_samuel/30-24.htm">1 Samuel 30:24 f</a>).<br><br>8. Spoils and Trophies:<br><br>A proportion of the spoils was reserved for the Levites, and "a tribute unto the Lord" was also levied before distribution was made of the collected booty (<a href="/numbers/31-28.htm">Numbers 31:28, 30</a>). To the Lord, in the Israelite interpretation of war, the spoils truly belong, and we see this exemplified at the capture of Jericho when the silver and the gold and the vessels of brass were put into the treasury of the house of the Lord (<a href="/joshua/6-24.htm">Joshua 6:24</a>). Under the monarchy, part of the spoils fell to the king who might in turn dedicate it to the Lord or use it for the purposes of war (<a href="/2_kings/14-14.htm">2 Kings 14:14</a> <a href="/1_chronicles/18-7.htm">1 Chronicles 18:7, 11</a>). The armor of the conquered was sometimes dedicated as a trophy of victory and placed in the temple of the heathen or preserved near the ark of God (<a href="/1_samuel/21-9.htm">1 Samuel 21:9</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/31-9.htm">1 Samuel 31:9</a>).<br><br>9. Treaties of Peace:<br><br>As the blast of the war-horn summoned to war, so it intimated the cessation of hostilities (<a href="/2_samuel/2-28.htm">2 Samuel 2:28</a>); and as to draw the sword was the token of the entrance upon a campaign, so to return it to its sheath, or to put it up into the scabbard, was emblematic of the establishment of peace (<a href="/jeremiah/47-6.htm">Jeremiah 47:6</a>). As ambassadors were sent to summon to war (<a href="/jeremiah/49-14.htm">Jeremiah 49:14</a>), or to dissuade from war (<a href="/2_chronicles/35-21.htm">2 Chronicles 35:21</a>), so ambassadors were employed to negotiate peace (<a href="/isaiah/33-7.htm">Isaiah 33:7</a>). Treaties of peace were made on occasion between combatants, as between Ahab and Ben-hadad II after the defeat of the latter and his fortunate escape from the hands of Ahab with his life (<a href="/1_kings/20-30.htm">1 Kings 20:30, 31</a>). By the appeal of Ben-hadad's representative to Ahab's clemency his life was spared, and in return therefor he granted to Ahab the right to have bazaars for trade in Damascus as his father had had in Samaria (<a href="/1_kings/20-34.htm">1 Kings 20:34</a>). Alliances, offensive and defensive, were common, as Ahab and Jehoshaphat against Syria (<a href="/1_kings/22-2.htm">1 Kings 22:2</a>), Jehoram and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom against Moab (<a href="/2_kings/3-7.htm">2 Kings 3:7</a>), and the kings of the West, including Ahab and Hadadezer of Damascus, to resist Shalmaneser II of Assyria, who routed the allies at the battle of Qarqar in 854 B.C. It is among the wonderful works of Yahweh that He makes war to cease to the end of the earth, that He breaks the bow, and cuts the spear in sunder, and "burneth the chariots in the fire" (<a href="/psalm/46-9.htm">Psalm 46:9</a>). And prophetic pictures of the peace of the latter days include the breaking of "the bow and the sword and the battle out of the land" (<a href="/hosea/2-18.htm">Hosea 2:18</a>), the beating of "swords into plowshares, and.... spears into pruning-hooks" (<a href="/isaiah/2-4.htm">Isaiah 2:4</a> <a href="/micah/4-3.htm">Micah 4:3</a>).<br><br>10. War in the New Testament:<br><br>Among the signs of the last days given by our Lord are "wars and rumors of wars" (<a href="/matthew/24-6.htm">Matthew 24:6</a> <a href="/mark/13-7.htm">Mark 13:7</a> <a href="/luke/21-9.htm">Luke 21:9</a>; <a href="/luke/21-24.htm">Luke 21:24</a>). Jesus accepts war as part of the present world-order, and draws from it an impressive illustration of the exacting conditions of Christian discipleship (<a href="/luke/14-31.htm">Luke 14:31</a>). He foresees how Jerusalem is to be encompassed with armies and devoted to the bitterest extremities of war (<a href="/luke/19-41.htm">Luke 19:41</a>). He conceives Himself come, not to send peace on earth, but a sword (<a href="/matthew/10-34.htm">Matthew 10:34</a>); and declares that they who take the sword shall perish by the sword (<a href="/matthew/26-52.htm">Matthew 26:52</a>). The apostles trace war to the selfishness and greed of men (<a href="/james/4-1.htm">James 4:1</a>); they see, speaking figuratively, in fleshly lusts enemies which war against the soul (<a href="/1_peter/2-11.htm">1 Peter 2:11</a>); they find in war apt figures of the spiritual struggle and divine protection and ultimate victory of the Christian (<a href="/romans/7-23.htm">Romans 7:23</a>; <a href="/romans/8-37.htm">Romans 8:37</a> <a href="/2_corinthians/10-3.htm">2 Corinthians 10:3, 5</a> <a href="/1_timothy/1-18.htm">1 Timothy 1:18</a> <a href="/hebrews/13-13.htm">Hebrews 13:13</a> <a href="/1_peter/1-5.htm">1 Peter 1:5</a>), and of the triumphs of Christ Himself (<a href="/2_corinthians/2-14.htm">2 Corinthians 2:14</a> <a href="/colossians/2-15.htm">Colossians 2:15</a> <a href="/ephesians/2-16.htm">Ephesians 2:16, 17</a>). Paul made the acquaintance of the barracks, both at Jerusalem and at Caesarea (<a href="/acts/21-34.htm">Acts 21:34, 37</a>; <a href="/acts/23-35.htm">Acts 23:35</a>); and at Rome his bonds became familiar to the members of the Praetorian guard who were from time to time detailed to have him in keeping (<a href="/philippians/1-13.htm">Philippians 1:13</a>). It is under the figures of battle and war that John in the Apocalypse conceives the age-long conflict between righteousness and sin, Christ and Satan, and the final triumph of the Lamb, who is King of kings, and Lord of lords (<a href="/revelation/16-14.htm">Revelation 16:14-16</a>; <a href="/revelation/17-14.htm">Revelation 17:14</a>; <a href="/revelation/19-14.htm">Revelation 19:14</a>).
