Discovery BoxJoshua 10:13-14 
Context10:13 The sun stood still and the moon stood motionless while the nation took vengeance on its enemies. The event is recorded in the Scroll of the Upright One. 1 The sun stood motionless in the middle of the sky and did not set for about a full day. 2 10:14 There has not been a day like it before or since. The Lord obeyed 3 a man, for the Lord fought for Israel!
1 tn Heb “Is it not written down in the Scroll of the Upright One.” Many modern translations render, “the Scroll [or Book] of Jashar,” leaving the Hebrew name “Jashar” (which means “Upright One”) untranslated.
sn The Scroll of the Upright One was apparently an ancient Israelite collection of songs and prayers (see also 2 Sam 1:18).
2 tn Heb “and did not hurry to set [for] about a full day.”
3 tn Heb “listened to the voice of.”
