It happened, when they brought forth those kings to Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the men of war who went with him, Come near, put your feet on the necks of these kings. They came near, and put their feet on the necks of them.
Israel’s leaders placed large stones over the grave of the Canaanite kings (Joshua 10:27) for the benefit of future observers (cf. Joshua 7:25). This constituted still another memorial to God’s faithfulness and power.
