and we smote him and his sons, and all his people; with the edge of the sword; slew them all: the Cetib or textual reading is "his son", though the Keri or margin is "his sons", which we follow. So Jarchi observes, it is written "his son", because he had a son mighty as himself, he says.

The Pulpit Commentary 1880 · Public Domain Vers. 33, 34And (Num_22:24, 25 32:34, 35, etc.) utterly…
Vers. 33, 34And (Num_22:24, 25 32:34, 35, etc.) utterly destroyed the men, and the women, and the little ones.... we left none to remain. As the Amorites came out of Canaan, they belonged to the race which God had doomed to destruction. The Israelites, therefore, had a commission to extirpate them. Utterly destroyed; literally, devoted or placed under a ban, which of course implied utter destruction. The men, and the women, and the little ones, of every city; literally, every city of men and women and little children. The phrase "city of men" can hardly mean, as Rosenm affirms, "men of a city;" the hypallage here would be too violent. It rather means "a peopled city," "a city inhabited by men." The word rendered "men" ( does not designate males as opposed to females, but is a designation of human beings in general (cf. Job_11:3 Job_24:12; Job_20:4-8 Job_31:31; Psa_26:4, "vain persons," Authorized Version, literally, men of emptiness or of falsehood, etc.) The passage might be rendered, every inhabited city, even the women and the little children.
