This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Jos_6:10 And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall [any] word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout.
Ver. 10. Ye shall not shout, nor make any noise.] Turcae perpetuum silentium tenent, ut muti. {a} The Turks, though when they storm a place they make hideous outcries, yet in their camp they are marvellously mute; being no otherwise commanded than by the beckoning or nod of their commanders. {b} This was worthily wondered at by King Ferdinand’s ambassadors.
{a} Cuspin., De Caesarib.
{b} Turk. Hist., 715.
