Contextual Overview
6 So Joshua son of Nun called the priests together and said to them, "Carry the Holy Box of the Lord . Tell seven priests to carry the trumpets and march in front of it." 7 Then Joshua ordered the people, "Now go! March around the city. The soldiers with weapons will march in front of the Holy Box of the Lord ." 8 After Joshua finished speaking to the people, the seven priests with the trumpets began marching before the Lord , blowing the trumpets as they marched. The priests carrying the Lord 's Holy Box followed them. 9 The soldiers with weapons marched in front of the priests who were blowing the horns. And the rest of the men walked behind the Holy Box, marching and blowing their trumpets. 10 Joshua had told the people not to give a war cry. He said, "Don't shout. Don't say a word until the day I tell you. Then you will shout." 11 So Joshua made the priests carry the Holy Box of the Lord around the city one time. Then they went back to the camp and spent the night there. 12 Early the next morning Joshua got up, and the priests carried the Lord 's Holy Box again. 13 The seven priests with the trumpets marched in front of the Lord 's Holy Box, blowing their trumpets. The soldiers with weapons marched in front of them. The rest of the people marched behind the Lord 's Holy Box. During the whole time they marched, the priests were blowing the trumpets. 14 On the second day, they all marched around the city one time. And then they went back to the camp. They continued to do this every day for six days. 15 On the seventh day, they got up at dawn and marched around the city seven times. They marched in the same way they had marched on the days before, but on that day they marched around the city seven times.

Genesis 6:1
The number of people on earth continued to increase. When these people had daughters, the sons of God saw how beautiful they were. So they chose the women they wanted. They married them, and the women had their children. Then the Lord said, "People are only human. I will not let my Spirit be troubled by them forever. I will let them live only 120 years." During this time and also later, the Nephilim people lived in the land. They have been famous as powerful soldiers since ancient times.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Joshua rose early in the morning,.... Of the second day; to take care of, direct, and prepare everything for another procession on that day; so active and diligent was he to do the will and work of God, exactly and punctually:
and the priests took up the ark of the Lord; and carried it about as they had done the day before.
