And don't be afraid of those people. Why, we'll have them for lunch! They have no protection and God is on our side. Don't be afraid of them!"

Then the glory of the Lord was seen in the Tent of meeting, before the eyes of all the children of Israel.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh,.... Rose up and interposed in this affair, looking upon themselves under a special obligation so to do, as they were capable of confronting the other spies, and contradicting what they had said:
[which were] of them that searched the land; they were two of that number, and were the more concerned to hear such a false account given, and distressed to observe the mutiny of the people, and therefore judged themselves in duty bound to do all they could to stop it:
rent their clothes; in token of sorrow for the sins of the people; and at their blasphemy and ingratitude against God, and in dread of his wrath and fury breaking forth upon them.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Numbers 14:6. And Joshua, &c. — See on the preceding chapter, Numbers 13:33; Numbers 13:33.
