Biblical Parallels Index – Devarim 20
Making Peace with the Seven Nations? Devarim 20:16-18 commands extremely harsh warfare against the nations of Canaan, without the possibility of forming a peaceful covenant. However, other sections of the Tanakh, including Yehoshua 11 and Yehoshua 6, seem to indicate a possibility of making peace.
