Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the second day they compassed the city once,.... Went round it one time only; as on the first:
and returned into the camp: which was at Gilgal, Joshua 5:10;
so they did six days: four more after these two successively, and proceeded in the same order and manner as on those two days.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Joshua 6:14. So they did six days. — It is not likely that the whole Israelitish host went each day round the city. This would have been utterly impossible: the fighting men alone amounted to nearly 600,000, independently of the people, who must have amounted at least to two or three millions; we may therefore safely assert that only a select number, such as was deemed necessary for the occasion, were employed. Jericho could not have been a large city: and to reduce it could not have required a hundredth part of the armed force under the command of Joshua.
