About two or three thousand men are adequate to defeat Ai. Don’t tire out the whole army, for Ai is small.” 4 So about three thousand men went up, but they fled from the men of Ai. 5 The men of Ai killed about thirty-six of them and chased them from in front of the city gate all the way to the fissures and defeated them on the steep slope.

I will no longer be with you, unless you destroy what has contaminated you. 13 Get up!

The clan the LORD selects must approach by families.
