This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Jos_6:26 And Joshua adjured [them] at that time, saying, Cursed [be] the man before the LORD, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: he shall lay the foundation thereof in his firstborn, and in his youngest [son] shall he set up the gates of it.
Ver. 26. Cursed be the man.] And yet there was found a man that durst rebuild it, {1Ki_16:34} as if he would despitefully spit in the face of Heaven, wrestle a fall with the Almighty.
In his firstborn.] God’s hand was very heavy upon William the Conqueror in his issue, for his depopulations in New Forest. {a}
{a} Speed, p. 445.
