Joshua 23:11 - Forerunner Commentary

Joshua 23:11

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.

11 ^aTherefore take careful heed to yourselves, that you love the Lord your God.

12 Or else, if indeed you do ^ago back, and cling to the remnant of these nations—these that remain among you—and ^bmake marriages with them, and go in to them and they to you,

13 know for certain that ^athe Lord your God will no longer drive out these nations from before you. ^bBut they shall be snares and traps to you, and scourges on your sides and thorns in your eyes, until you perish from this good land which the Lord your God has given you.

14 “Behold, this day ^aI am going the way of all the earth. And you know in all your hearts and in all your souls that ^bnot one thing has failed of all the good things which the Lord your God spoke concerning you. All have come to pass for you; not one word of them has failed.

15 ^aTherefore it shall come to pass, that as all the good things have come upon you which the Lord your God promised you, so the Lord will bring upon you ^ball harmful things, until He has destroyed you from this good land which the Lord your God has given you.
