Deuteronomy 20:14 provides the legal basis for taking spoil from distant cities, which Deuteronomy 2:35 exemplifies in Sihon's conquest.

Deuteronomy 3:7 repeats the same phrase about taking livestock and spoil when conquering Og, reinforcing the consistent practice.

Joshua 8:27 shows Israel following the same pattern at Ai—taking livestock and spoil as plunder per God's command.

Numbers 31:9-11 similarly records Israel taking plunder after defeating Midian, paralleling the practice of seizing livestock and goods.
