And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites, that were beyond the Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites, that were by the sea, heard how that Jehovah had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel, until we were passed over, that their heart melted, neither was there spirit in them any more, because of the children of Israel.
Characters in the Bible will often address others using the term “my lord,” and it seems to be no more than an expression of respect. The name “the Lord” refers to the Divine Good, and that when the term “lord” is applied to men or angels it also refers to the desire to be good.
