Context
NETBible

So Moses said to Joshua, “Choose some of our 1  men and go out, fight against Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on top of the hill with the staff of God in my hand.”

XREF

Ex 4:2,20; Ex 17:13; Ex 24:13; Nu 11:28; Nu 13:16; Nu 31:3,4; De 32:44; Ac 7:45; Heb 4:8

NET © Notes

tn This could be rendered literally “choose men for us.” But the lamed (ל) preposition probably indicates possession, “our men,” and the fact that Joshua was to choose from Israel, as well as the fact that there is no article on “men,” indicates he was to select some to fight.
