Captive
one
taken
in

Captives
were
often
treated
with
great
cruelty
and
indignity
(1
Kings
20:32;
Josh
. 10:24;
Judg
. 1:7; 2
Sam
.
4:12;
Judg
. 8:7; 2
Sam
. 12:31; 1
Chr
. 20:3).
When
a
city
was
taken
by
assault
,
all
the
men
were
slain
,
and
the
women
and
children
carried
away
captive
and
sold
as
slaves
(
Isa
. 20; 47:3;
2
Chr
. 28:9-15;
Ps
. 44:12;
Joel
3:3),
and
exposed
to
the
most
cruel
treatment
(
Nah
. 3:10;
Zech
. 14:2;
Esther
3:13; 2
Kings
8:12;
Isa
. 13:16, 18).
Captives
were
sometimes
carried
away
into
foreign
countries
,
as
was
the
case
with
the
Jews
(
Jer
. 20:5;
39:9, 10; 40:7).
