Contextual Overview

¹⁵ If it seem evil to you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amori, in whose land you dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. ¹⁶ The people answered, Far be it from us that we should forsake the LORD, to serve other gods; ¹⁷ for the LORD our God, he it is who brought us and our fathers up out of the land of Mitzrayim, from the house of bondage, and who did those great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way in which we went, and among all the peoples through the midst of whom we passed; ¹⁸ and the LORD drove out from before us all the peoples, even the Amori who lived in the land: therefore we also will serve the LORD; for he is our God. ¹⁹ Yehoshua said to the people, You can't serve the LORD; for he is a holy God; he is a jealous God; he will not forgive your disobedience nor your sins. ²⁰ If you forsake the LORD, and serve foreign gods, then he will turn and do you evil, and consume you, after that he has done you good. ²¹ The people said to Yehoshua, No; but we will serve the LORD. ²² Yehoshua said to the people, You are witnesses against yourselves that you have chosen you the LORD, to serve him. They said, We are witnesses. ²³ Now therefore put away, [said he], the foreign gods which are among you, and incline your heart to the LORD, the God of Yisra'el. ²⁴ The people said to Yehoshua, the LORD our God will we serve, and to his voice will we listen.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So Joshua let the people depart, every man unto his inheritance. Dismissed them, and took his final leave and farewell of them, dying soon after; upon which they returned to the possessions and inheritances assigned by lot to the several tribes, of which they were the heads and princes.
