Notes

Joshua 6:27

As the first stage of Israel’s conquest of Canaan came to an end, both the Israelites and the Canaanites saw that the Lord was with Joshua, just as he had promised(1:5, 9; compare 4:14). By crossing the Jordan and capturing Jericho, Israel firmly established its presence in the land. This caused the people of Canaan to fear Israel and Israel’s God.

Joshua 6:24–27

The people of Jericho had already been put to death by the Israelites (6:21). Joshua then destroyed the city and everything in it. As the firstfruits of the battle, all the spoils belonged to God.
