Joshua 8:28-29
Jos 8:28 Joshua had the town burnt down and made into a heap of rubbish for ever. Jos 8:29 He had the king of Ai hanged upon a tree, i.e., put to death, and then suspended upon a stake (see Num 25:4) until the evening; but at sunset he had him taken down (in accordance with Deu 21:22-23), and thrown at the entrance of the town-gate, and a heap of stones piled upon him (as in the case of Achan, Jos 7:26).
