Them - The same party last spoken of, even the five thousand mentioned Jos 8:12, there are only two parties engaged in the taking of Ai, and but one ambush, as plainly appears by comparing Jos 8:9, with Jos 8:12, which speaks only of five thousand, who are justly supposed to be a part of those thirty thousand named, Jos 8:3.
