Joshua 1:13
1:13 “Remember what Moses the Lord’s servant commanded you. 1 The Lord your God is giving you a place to settle and is handing this land over to you. 2
Joshua 11:23
11:23 Joshua conquered 3 the whole land, just as the Lord had promised Moses, 4 and he assigned Israel their tribal portions. 5 Then the land was free of war.
1 tn Heb “remember the word which Moses, the Lord’s servant, commanded you.”
sn This command can be found in Deut 3:18-20. In vv. 13-15 Joshua paraphrases the command, as the third person reference to Moses in v. 14 indicates.
2 tn Heb “is providing rest for you and is giving to you this land.”
sn “This land” refers to the trans-Jordanian lands allotted to these tribes.
3 tn Heb “took.”
4 tn Heb “according to all which the Lord said to Moses.” The translation assumes this refers to the promise of the land (see 1:3). Another possibility is that it refers to the Lord’s instructions, in which case the phrase could be translated, “just as the Lord had instructed Moses” (so NLT; cf. also NIV “had directed Moses”).
5 tn Heb “and Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel according to their allotted portions by their tribes.”
