Wesley's Notes

8:11 That were with him - Namely, the thirty thousand mentioned, ver.3, or the most of them.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

11-14. there was a valley between them and Ai-literally, "the valley."

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

8:3-22 Observe Joshua's conduct and prudence. Those that would maintain their spiritual conflicts must not love their ease. Probably he went into the valley alone, to pray to God for a blessing, and he did not seek in vain. He never drew back till the work was done. Those that have stretched out their hands against their spiritual enemies, must never draw them back.
