Yosua 2:3-4
Konteks2:3 So the king of Jericho sent this order to Rahab: 1 “Turn over 2 the men who came to you 3 – the ones who came to your house 4 – for they have come to spy on the whole land!” 2:4 But the woman hid the two men 5 and replied, “Yes, these men were clients of mine, 6 but I didn’t know where they came from.
Yosua 11:5
Konteks11:5 All these kings gathered and joined forces 7 at the Waters of Merom to fight Israel.
Yosua 11:7
Konteks11:7 Joshua and his whole army caught them by surprise at the Waters of Merom and attacked them. 8
Yosua 2:2
Konteks2:2 The king of Jericho received this report: “Note well! 9 Israelite men have come here tonight 10 to spy on the land.”
Yosua 7:25
Konteks7:25 Joshua said, “Why have you brought disaster 11 on us? The Lord will bring disaster on you today!” All Israel stoned him to death. (They also stoned and burned the others.) 12
Yosua 9:8
Konteks9:8 But they said to Joshua, “We are willing to be your subjects.” 13 So Joshua said to them, “Who are you and where do you come from?”
Yosua 5:14
Konteks5:14 He answered, 14 “Truly I am the commander of the Lord’s army. 15 Now I have arrived!” 16 Joshua bowed down with his face to the ground 17 and asked, “What does my master want to say to his servant?”
Yosua 9:6
Konteks9:6 They came to Joshua at the camp in Gilgal and said to him and the men of Israel, “We have come from a distant land. Make a treaty with us.”
Yosua 9:9
Konteks9:9 They told him, “Your subjects 18 have come from a very distant land because of the reputation 19 of the Lord your God, for we have heard the news about all he did in Egypt 20
Yosua 9:12
Konteks9:12 This bread of ours was warm when we packed it in our homes the day we started out to meet you, 21 but now it is dry and hard. 22
Yosua 15:18
Konteks15:18 One time Acsah 23 came and charmed her father 24 so that she could ask him for some land. When she got down from her donkey, Caleb said to her, “What would you like?”
Yosua 6:18
Konteks6:18 But be careful when you are setting apart the riches for the Lord. If you take any of it, you will make the Israelite camp subject to annihilation and cause a disaster. 25
Yosua 23:15
Konteks23:15 But in the same way every faithful promise the Lord your God made to you has been realized, 26 it is just as certain, if you disobey, that the Lord will bring on you every judgment 27 until he destroys you from this good land which the Lord your God gave you.
Yosua 2:1
Konteks2:1 Joshua son of Nun sent two spies out from Shittim secretly and instructed them: 28 “Find out what you can about the land, especially Jericho.” 29 They stopped at the house of a prostitute named Rahab and spent the night there. 30
Yosua 2:19
Konteks2:19 Anyone who leaves your house will be responsible for his own death – we are innocent in that case! 31 But if anyone with you in the house is harmed, we will be responsible. 32
Yosua 3:13
Konteks3:13 When the feet 33 of the priests carrying the ark of the Lord, the Ruler 34 of the whole earth, touch 35 the water of the Jordan, the water coming downstream toward you will stop flowing and pile up.” 36
Yosua 24:7
Konteks24:7 Your fathers 37 cried out for help to the Lord; he made the area between you and the Egyptians dark, 38 and then drowned them in the sea. 39 You witnessed with your very own eyes 40 what I did in Egypt. You lived in the wilderness for a long time. 41
Yosua 3:16
Konteks3:16 the water coming downstream toward them stopped flowing. 42 It piled up far upstream 43 at Adam (the city near Zarethan); there was no water at all flowing to the sea of the Arabah (the Salt Sea). 44 The people crossed the river opposite Jericho. 45
Yosua 10:4
Konteks10:4 “Come to my aid 46 so we can attack Gibeon, for it has made peace with Joshua and the Israelites.”
Yosua 24:1
Konteks24:1 Joshua assembled all the Israelite tribes at Shechem. He summoned Israel’s elders, rulers, judges, and leaders, and they appeared before God.
Yosua 10:33
Konteks10:33 Then King Horam of Gezer came up to help Lachish, but Joshua struck down him and his army 47 until no survivors remained.
Yosua 7:14
Konteks7:14 In the morning you must approach in tribal order. 48 The tribe the Lord selects 49 must approach by clans. The clan the Lord selects must approach by families. 50 The family the Lord selects must approach man by man. 51
Yosua 10:9
Konteks10:9 Joshua attacked them by surprise after marching all night from Gilgal. 52
Yosua 10:6
Konteks10:6 The men of Gibeon sent this message to Joshua at the camp in Gilgal, “Do not abandon 53 your subjects! 54 Rescue us! Help us! For all the Amorite kings living in the hill country are attacking us.” 55
Yosua 15:15
Konteks15:15 From there he attacked the people of Debir. 56 (Debir used to be called Kiriath Sepher.)
Yosua 10:24
Konteks10:24 When they brought the kings out to Joshua, he 57 summoned all the men of Israel and said to the commanders of the troops who accompanied him, “Come here 58 and put your feet on the necks of these kings.” So they came up 59 and put their feet on their necks.
Yosua 14:6
Konteks14:6 The men of Judah approached Joshua in Gilgal, and Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said to him, “You know what the Lord said about you and me to Moses, the man of God, at Kadesh Barnea. 60
Yosua 2:9
Konteks2:9 She said to the men, “I know the Lord is handing this land over to you. 61 We are absolutely terrified of you, 62 and all who live in the land are cringing before 63 you. 64
Yosua 7:17
Konteks7:17 He then made the clans of Judah approach and the clan of the Zerahites was selected. He made the clan of the Zerahites approach and Zabdi 65 was selected. 66
Yosua 8:5
Konteks8:5 I and all the troops 67 who are with me will approach the city. When they come out to fight us like before, we will retreat from them.
Yosua 11:20
Konteks11:20 for the Lord determined to make them obstinate so they would attack Israel. He wanted Israel to annihilate them without mercy, as he had instructed Moses. 68
Yosua 24:20
Konteks24:20 If 69 you abandon the Lord and worship 70 foreign gods, he will turn against you; 71 he will bring disaster on you and destroy you, 72 though he once treated you well.” 73
Yosua 3:9
Konteks3:9 Joshua told the Israelites, “Come here and listen to the words of the Lord your God!”
Yosua 8:28
Konteks8:28 Joshua burned Ai and made it a permanently uninhabited mound (it remains that way to this very day). 74
Yosua 22:12
Konteks22:12 When the Israelites heard this, the entire Israelite community assembled at Shiloh to launch an attack against them. 75
Yosua 23:8
Konteks23:8 But you must be loyal to 76 the Lord your God, as you have been 77 to this very day.
Yosua 11:21
Konteks11:21 At that time Joshua attacked and eliminated the Anakites from the hill country 78 – from Hebron, Debir, Anab, and all the hill country of Judah and Israel. 79 Joshua annihilated them and their cities.
Yosua 17:4
Konteks17:4 They went before Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the leaders and said, “The Lord told Moses to assign us land among our relatives.” 80 So Joshua 81 assigned them land among their uncles, as the Lord had commanded. 82
Yosua 21:1
Konteks21:1 The tribal leaders of the Levites went before Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun and the Israelite tribal leaders
Yosua 5:9
Konteks5:9 The Lord said to Joshua, “Today I have taken away 83 the disgrace 84 of Egypt from you.” So that place is called Gilgal 85 even to this day.
Yosua 7:16
Konteks7:16 Bright and early the next morning Joshua made Israel approach in tribal order 86 and the tribe of Judah was selected.
Yosua 10:41
Konteks10:41 Joshua conquered the area between Kadesh Barnea and Gaza and the whole region of Goshen, all the way to Gibeon. 87
Yosua 14:14
Konteks14:14 So Hebron remains the assigned land of Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite to this very day 88 because he remained loyal to the Lord God of Israel.
Yosua 24:5
Konteks24:5 I sent Moses and Aaron, and I struck Egypt down when I intervened in their land. 89 Then I brought you out.
Yosua 10:11
Konteks10:11 As they fled from Israel on the slope leading down from 90 Beth Horon, the Lord threw down on them large hailstones from the sky, 91 all the way to Azekah. They died – in fact, more died from the hailstones than the Israelites killed with the sword.
Yosua 2:23
Konteks2:23 Then the two men returned – they came down from the hills, crossed the river, 92 came to Joshua son of Nun, and reported to him all they had discovered.
Yosua 3:1-2
Konteks3:1 Bright and early the next morning Joshua and the Israelites left Shittim and came to the Jordan. 93 They camped there before crossing the river. 94 3:2 After three days the leaders went through the camp
Yosua 4:9
Konteks4:9 Joshua also set up twelve stones 95 in the middle of the Jordan in the very place where the priests carrying the ark of the covenant stood. They remain there to this very day.
Yosua 7:18
Konteks7:18 He then made Zabdi’s 96 family approach man by man 97 and Achan son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, from the tribe of Judah, was selected.
Yosua 8:19
Konteks8:19 When he held out his hand, the men waiting in ambush rose up quickly from their place and attacked. 98 They entered the city, captured it, and immediately set it on fire.
Yosua 8:35
Konteks8:35 Joshua read aloud every commandment Moses had given 99 before the whole assembly of Israel, including the women, children, and resident foreigners who lived among them. 100
Yosua 9:22
Konteks9:22 101 Joshua summoned the Gibeonites 102 and said to them, “Why did you trick 103 us by saying, ‘We live far away from you,’ when you really live nearby? 104
Yosua 11:4
Konteks11:4 These kings came out with their armies; they were as numerous as the sand on the seashore and had a large number of horses and chariots. 105
Yosua 13:13
Konteks13:13 But the Israelites did not conquer 106 the Geshurites and Maacathites; Geshur and Maacah live among Israel to this very day.
Yosua 15:63
Konteks15:63 The men of Judah were unable to conquer the Jebusites living in Jerusalem. 107 The Jebusites live with the people of Judah in Jerusalem to this very day. 108
Yosua 20:5
Konteks20:5 When the avenger of blood comes after him, they must not hand over to him the one who committed manslaughter, for he accidentally killed his fellow man without premeditation. 109
Yosua 22:33
Konteks22:33 The Israelites were satisfied with their report and gave thanks to God. 110 They said nothing more about launching an attack to destroy the land in which the Reubenites and Gadites lived. 111
Yosua 23:2
Konteks23:2 So Joshua summoned all Israel, including the elders, rulers, judges, and leaders, and told them: “I am very old.
Yosua 23:9
Konteks23:9 “The Lord drove out from before you great and mighty nations; no one has been able to resist you 112 to this very day.
Yosua 24:12
Konteks24:12 I sent terror 113 ahead of you to drive out before you the two 114 Amorite kings. I gave you the victory; it was not by your swords or bows. 115
Yosua 6:25
Konteks6:25 Yet Joshua spared 116 Rahab the prostitute, her father’s family, 117 and all who belonged to her. She lives in Israel 118 to this very day because she hid the messengers Joshua sent to spy on Jericho. 119
Yosua 7:5
Konteks7:5 The men of Ai killed about thirty-six of them and chased them from in front of the city gate all the way to the fissures 120 and defeated them on the steep slope. 121 The people’s 122 courage melted away like water. 123
Yosua 7:9
Konteks7:9 When the Canaanites and all who live in the land hear about this, they will turn against us and destroy the very memory of us 124 from the earth. What will you do to protect your great reputation?” 125
Yosua 7:15
Konteks7:15 The one caught with the riches 126 must be burned up 127 along with all who belong to him, because he violated the Lord’s covenant and did such a disgraceful thing in Israel.’”
Yosua 7:26
Konteks7:26 Then they erected over him a large pile of stones (it remains to this very day 128 ) and the Lord’s anger subsided. So that place is called the Valley of Disaster to this very day.
Yosua 8:14
Konteks8:14 When the king of Ai saw Israel, he and his whole army quickly got up the next day and went out to fight Israel at the meeting place near the Arabah. 129 But he did not realize 130 men were hiding behind the city. 131
Yosua 8:20
Konteks8:20 When the men of Ai turned around, they saw 132 the smoke from the city ascending into the sky and were so shocked they were unable to flee in any direction. 133 In the meantime the men who were retreating to the desert turned against their pursuers.
Yosua 8:22
Konteks8:22 At the same time the men who had taken the city came out to fight, and the men of Ai were trapped in the middle. 134 The Israelites struck them down, leaving no survivors or refugees.
Yosua 9:27
Konteks9:27 and that day made them woodcutters and water carriers for the community and for the altar of the Lord at the divinely chosen site. (They continue in that capacity to this very day.) 135
Yosua 11:6
Konteks11:6 The Lord told Joshua, “Don’t be afraid of them, for about this time tomorrow I will cause all of them to lie dead before Israel. You must hamstring their horses and burn 136 their chariots.”
Yosua 12:1-2
Konteks12:1 Now these are the kings of the land whom the Israelites defeated and drove from their land 137 on the east side of the Jordan, 138 from the Arnon Valley to Mount Hermon, including all the eastern Arabah:
12:2 King Sihon of the Amorites who lived 139 in Heshbon and ruled from Aroer (on the edge of the Arnon Valley) – including the city in the middle of the valley 140 and half of Gilead – all the way to the Jabbok Valley bordering Ammonite territory.
Yosua 17:14
Konteks17:14 The descendants of Joseph said to Joshua, “Why have you assigned us only one tribal allotment? After all, we have many people, for until now the Lord has enabled us to increase in number.” 141
Yosua 18:8
Konteks18:8 When the men started out, Joshua told those going to map out the land, “Go, walk through the land, map it out, and return to me. Then I will draw lots for you before the Lord here in Shiloh.”
Yosua 20:9
Konteks20:9 These were the cities of refuge 142 appointed for all the Israelites and for resident foreigners living among them. Anyone who accidentally killed someone could escape there and not be executed by 143 the avenger of blood, at least until his case was reviewed by the assembly. 144
Yosua 22:17
Konteks22:17 The sin we committed at Peor was bad enough. To this very day we have not purified ourselves; it even brought a plague on the community of the Lord. 145
Yosua 22:19
Konteks22:19 But if your own land 146 is impure, 147 cross over to the Lord’s own land, 148 where the Lord himself lives, 149 and settle down among us. 150 But don’t rebel against the Lord or us 151 by building for yourselves an altar aside from the altar of the Lord our God.
Yosua 23:4
Konteks23:4 See, I have parceled out to your tribes these remaining nations, 152 from the Jordan to the Mediterranean Sea 153 in the west, including all the nations I defeated. 154
Yosua 8:33
Konteks8:33 All the people, 155 rulers, 156 leaders, and judges were standing on either side of the ark, in front of the Levitical priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord. Both resident foreigners and native Israelites were there. 157 Half the people stood in front of Mount Gerizim and the other half in front of Mount Ebal, as Moses the Lord’s servant had previously instructed to them to do for the formal blessing ceremony. 158

[2:3] 3 tn The idiom “come to” (בוֹא אֶל, bo’ ’el) probably has sexual connotations here, as it often does elsewhere when a man “comes to” a woman. If so, the phrase could be translated “your clients.” The instructions reflect Rahab’s perspective as to the identity of the men.
[2:3] 4 tn The words “the ones who came to your house” (Heb “who came to your house”) may be a euphemistic scribal addition designed to blur the sexual connotation of the preceding words.
[2:4] 5 tn Heb “The woman took the two men and hid him.” The third masculine singular pronominal suffix on “hid” has to be a scribal error (see GKC §135.p).

The LXX has “he [Othniel] urged her to ask her father for a field.” This appears to be an attempt to reconcile the apparent inconsistency and probably does not reflect the original text. If Caleb is understood as the referent of the pronoun, the problem disappears. For a fuller discussion of the issue, see P. G. Mosca, “Who Seduced Whom?

[7:5] 120 tn The meaning and correct translation of the Hebrew word שְׁבָרִים (shÿvarim) is uncertain. The translation “fissures” is based on usage of the plural form of the noun in Ps 60:4 HT (60:2 ET), where it appears to refer to cracks in the earth caused by an earthquake. Perhaps deep ravines or gorges are in view, or the word is a proper noun (“all the way to Shebarim”).
[7:5] 121 sn The precise geographical location of the Israelite defeat at this “steep slope” is uncertain.

[8:14] 129 tn Heb “When the king of Ai saw, the men of Ai hurried and rose early and went out to meet Israel for battle, he and all his people at the meeting place before the Arabah.”
[8:14] 131 tn Heb “that (there was) an ambush for him behind the city.”
[8:20] 132 tn Heb “and they saw, and look.” The Hebrew term הִנֵּה (hinneh, “look”) draws attention to the scene and invites the audience to view the events from the perspective of the men of Ai.
[8:20] 133 tn Heb “and there was not in them hands to flee here or there.” The Hebrew term יָדַיִם (yadayim, “hands”) is idiomatic for “strength.”
[8:22] 134 tn Heb “and these went out from the city to meet them and they were for Israel in the middle, some on this side, and others on the other side.”
[9:27] 135 tn Heb “and Joshua made them in that day woodcutters and water carriers for the community, and for the altar of the

[12:2] 139 tn Or perhaps, “reigned.”
[12:2] 140 tc The MT reads here, “and the middle of the valley,” but the reading “the city in the middle of valley” can be reconstructed on the basis of Josh 13:9, 16.
[17:14] 141 tn Heb “Why have you given me as an inheritance one lot and one portion, though I am a great people until [the time] which, until now the

[22:19] 146 tn Heb “the land of your possession.”
[22:19] 147 sn The western tribes here imagine a possible motive for the action of the eastern tribes. T. C. Butler explains the significance of the land’s “impurity”: “East Jordan is impure because it is not Yahweh’s possession. Rather it is simply ‘your possession.’ That means it is land where Yahweh does not live, land which his presence has not sanctified and purified” (Joshua [WBC], 247).

[22:19] 151 tc Heb “and us to you rebel.” The reading of the MT, the accusative sign with suffix (וְאֹתָנוּ, vÿ’otanu), is problematic with the verb “rebel” (מָרַד, marad). Many Hebrew

[23:4] 154 tn Heb “from the Jordan and all the nations which I cut off and the Great Sea [at] the place where the sun sets.” The relationship of the second half of the verse, which mentions nations already conquered, to the first half, which speaks of “remaining nations,” is difficult to understand.
[8:33] 155 tn Heb “All Israel.”
[8:33] 157 tn Heb “like the resident alien, like the citizen.” The language is idiomatic, meaning that both groups were treated the same, at least in this instance.
