Wesley: Jos 23:10 - -- Impute not this therefore to your own valour, as you will be apt to do, but to God's gracious and powerful assistance.

Impute not this therefore to your own valour, as you will be apt to do, but to God's gracious and powerful assistance.

JFB: Jos 23:5-11 - -- The actual possessions which God had given were a pledge of the complete fulfilment of His promise in giving them the parts of the country still uncon...

The actual possessions which God had given were a pledge of the complete fulfilment of His promise in giving them the parts of the country still unconquered. But the accomplishment of the divine promise depended on their inviolable fidelity to God's law--on their keeping resolutely aloof from all familiar intercourse and intimate connections with the Canaanites, or in any way partaking of their idolatrous sins. In the event of their continuing in steadfast adherence to the cause of God, as happily distinguished the nation at that time, His blessing would secure them a course of brilliant and easy victories (Lev 26:7; Deu 28:7; Deu 32:30).

Clarke: Jos 23:10 - -- One man of you shall chase a thousand - Do not remain inactive on the supposition that you must be much more numerous before you can drive out your ...

One man of you shall chase a thousand - Do not remain inactive on the supposition that you must be much more numerous before you can drive out your enemies, for it is the Lord that shall drive out nations great and strong; and under his direction and influence one of you shall chase a thousand.

TSK: Jos 23:10 - -- One man : Lev 26:8; Deu 32:30; Jdg 3:31, Jdg 7:19-22, Jdg 15:15; 1Sa 14:6, 1Sa 14:12-16; 2Sa 23:8 Lord : Jos 10:42; Exo 14:14, Exo 23:27-33; Deu 3:22,...

One man of you shall chase a thousand,.... Here Kimchi and Ben Melech observe, that the future tense is put for the past, and that the sense is, one of them had chased a thousand in their war with the Canaanites; but Abarbinel disapproves of this observation, and thinks it refers to time to come, what they should be able to do if they cleaved unto the Lord; this was fulfilled in Samson, Jdg 15:15; such a promise was made, Lev 26:8,

for the Lord your God he it is that fighteth for you; and no wonder then that a thousand should be put to flight by one man; the Targum interprets it of the Word of the Lord, as in Jos 23:3,

as he hath promised you; see Deu 1:30.
