Contextual Overview

1 And it came to passe, along season after that the Lorde had geuen rest vnto Israel from al their enemies round about, that Iosuah waxed olde, and was stricken in age. 2 And Iosuah called for all Israel, and for their elders, their heades, their iudges, and officers, and sayd vnto them: I am olde and stricken in age, 3 And ye haue seene all that the Lorde your God hath done vnto all these nations before you, how the Lorde your God himself hath fought for you. 4 Beholde, I haue deuided vnto you by lot these nations that remayne, to be an inheritaunce for your tribes, euen from Iordane, with all the nations that I haue destroyed, euen vnto the great sea westward. 5 And the Lorde your God shall expel them before you, & cast them from out of your sight, and ye shall conquer their lande, as the Lord your God hath sayd vnto you. 6 Go to therfore, and be of a good courage, that ye take heede and do all that is written in the booke of the lawe of Moyses, that ye bowe not aside therefrom to the right hande or to the left. 7 Neither company with these nations that is with them that are left with you, neither make mention of the name of ther gods, nor cause to sweare by them, neither serue them, nor bowe your selues vnto them. 8 But sticke fast vnto the Lorde your God, as ye haue done vnto this day. 9 So shall the Lord cast out before you great nations and mightie, as no man hath ben able to stande before you hytherto. 10 One man of you shall chase a thousand: for the Lorde your God he fighteth for you, as he hath promised you.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it came to pass a long time after,.... Or "after many days" o, that is, years:

that the Lord had given rest unto Israel from all their enemies round about; the greatest part of the land of Canaan was subdued, the whole divided by lot to the tribes of Israel, and they quietly settled in the respective portions assigned them, the Canaanites that remained giving them no disturbance, in which state of rest and peace they had now been for some years; and this may be reasonably supposed to be the last year of the life of Joshua, see Joshua 23:14.

that Joshua waxed old [and] stricken in age; and became feeble and decrepit, and greatly declined; for though he was ten years younger than Moses when he died, yet not so vigorous, strong, and robust as he, but was pressed and bore down with the infirmities of age.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

This and the next chapter contain the last addresses of Joshua. These addresses were no doubt among the closing acts of Joshua’s life, but were evidently given on different occasions, and are of different character and scope. In the former Joshua briefly reminds the princes of the recent benefits of God toward them and their people, declares that God had fulfilled all His promises, and exhorts to faithfulness on their side to God that so His mercies may not be withdrawn: in the latter he takes a wider range, rehearses the gracious dealings of God with the nation from its very origin, and upon these as his grounds, he claims for God their sincere and entire service. But he grants them the option of withdrawing from the covenant if they so choose; and when they elect still to abide by it, it is solemnly renewed by the free consent of the whole people. Joshua’s reproofs and warnings are in sum and substance identical with those with which Moses closed his career (Deuteronomy 31:0, etc.). Compare throughout the marginal references.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXIII

Joshua, being old, calls for the rulers and different heads of

the Israelites, 1, 2,

to whom he relates how God had put them in possession of the

promised land, 3, 4;

from which all their remaining enemies should be expelled, 5.

Exhorts them to be faithful to God, and to avoid all connections

with the idolatrous nations, 6-8.

Encourages them with the strongest promises, that no enemy

should ever be able to prevail against them, if they continued

to love the Lord their God, 9-11.

Lays also before them the consequences of disobedience, 12, 13.

Shows them that as all God's promises had been fulfilled to

them while they were obedient, so his threatening should be

fulfilled own them if they revolted from his service; and

that if they did so, they should be utterly destroyed from

off the good land, 14-16.

NOTES ON CHAP. XXIII

Verse Joshua 23:1. A long time after that the Lord had given rest — This is supposed to have been in the last or one hundred and tenth year of the life of Joshua, about thirteen or fourteen years after the conquest of Canaan, and seven after the division of the land among the tribes.
