Charles Ellicott Commentary Joshua 2:16

"And she said unto them, Get you to the mountain, lest the pursuers light upon you; and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers be returned: and afterward may ye go your way." — Joshua 2:16 (ASV)

Get you to the mountain. —The mountains between Jerusalem and Jericho have often been a refuge for worse characters than Joshua’s two spies (Luke 10:30).
