Jos_22:22 The LORD God of gods, the LORD God of gods, he knoweth, and Israel he shall know; if [it be] in rebellion, or if in transgression against the LORD, (save us not this day,)
Ver. 22. The Lord God of gods, the Lord God of gods.] This repetition is very emphatical and pathetical, expressing "their carefulness, their apology, their indignation, their fear, their vehement desire, their zeal," {2Co_7:11} their utter detestation of such an abomination.
Save us not this day.] Let God deprive us, if. guilty, of safety here, and salvation hereafter.
