JOSHUA CHAPTER 6



Jericho is shut up by the Israelites, Jos_6:1. The people and seven priests with the ark go round it six days, Jos_6:2-14. On the seventh day they go round seven times; the priests blow the trumpets; the people shout; the city accursed; nothing to be taken, but all consecrated; the walls fall down; men, women, and cattle destroyed, Jos_6:15-21. Rahab and her kindred are saved, Jos_6:22-25. Joshua curseth the man who should rebuild Jericho, Jos_6:26.



Straitly shut up; not only by night, as before, Jos_2:5, but constantly and diligently.
