Joshua 23:8
Compare all
6 aTherefore be very courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the Book of the Law of Moses, blest you turn aside from it to the right hand or to the left,  
7 and lest you ago among these nations, these who remain among you. You shall not bmake mention of the name of their gods, nor cause anyone to cswear by them; you shall not dserve them nor bow down to them,  
8 but you shall ahold fast to the Lord your God, as you have done to this day.  
9 aFor the Lord has driven out from before you great and strong nations; but as for you, no one has been able to stand against you to this day.  
10 aOne man of you shall chase a thousand, for the Lord your God is He who fights for you, bas He promised you.

Joshua 23:8

Cleave to the Lord - By constant obedience, entire affection, faithful service and worship of him alone. To this day - To wit, since you came in to Canaan; since which time the body of the people (for of them he speaks, not of every particular person) had behaved themselves much better than they did in the wilderness, and had not been guilty of any gross and general apostacy from God, or rebellion against him.
