Manasseh

And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher, Bethshean, and her towns: and the inhabiters of Dor, with the towns pertaining to the same: and the inhabiters of Endor with the towns of the same: and the inhabiters of Taanach with her towns and the inhabiters of Megiddo with the towns of the same, even three countries:

Taanach

Kings came and fought. Then fought the king of Canaan at Taanach, upon the water of Megiddo. But the silver that they coveted, they carried not away.

And out of the half tribe of Manasseh, Taanach with her suburbs; Gathrimmon with her suburbs: Two cities.

The canaanites

And thou shalt make none covenant with them nor with their gods.

and when the LORD thy God hath set them before thee that thou shouldest smite them: see that thou utterly destroy them and make no covenant with them nor have compassion on them.

But Saul and the people spared Agag, and they left of the sheep and of the oxen and fat things and the lambs and all that was good, and would not destroy them. But all that was nought worth and flaggy, that they destroyed utterly.

Neither destroyed they the Heathen, as the LORD commanded them,

Cursed be he that doth the work of the LORD negligently; and cured be he that keepeth back his sword from shedding of blood.
