Deuteronomy 16:18

16:18

judges ....................... judge <08199> [Judges.]

villages <08179> [in all thy gates.]

This expression may refer to the gate of the city, as the forum or place of public concourse among the Israelites, where a court of judicature was held, to try all causes and decide all affairs. The same practice obtained among other Eastern nations. The Ottoman court, it is well known, derived its appellation of the {Porte,} from the distribution of justice and the dispatch of public business at its gates. And the square tower which forms the principal entrance to the Alhamra, or red palace of the Moorish kings of Grenada, retains to this day the appellation of the Gate of judgment, from its having been the place where justice was at one period summarily administered.

Joshua 24:1

24:1

Joshua <03091> [Joshua.]

This must have been a different assembly from that mentioned in the preceding chapter, though probably held not long after the former.

Shechem <07927> [Shechem.]

As it is immediately added, that "they presented themselves before God," which is supposed to mean at the tabernacle; some are of opinion that Joshua caused it to be conveyed from Shiloh to Shechem on this occasion, to give the greater solemnity to his last meeting with the people. The Vatican and Alexandrian copies of the Septuagint, however, read [Selo,] both here and in verse 25; which many suppose to have been the original reading. Dr. Shuckford supposes that the covenant was made at Shechem, and that the people went to Shiloh to confirm it. But the most probable opinion seems to be that of Dr. Kennicott, that when all the tribes were assembled as Shechem, Joshua called the chiefs to him on that mount, which had before been consecrated by the law, and by the altar which he had erected.

summoned <07121> [called.]

appeared <03320> [presented.]

24:2

ancestors .......... father <01> [Your fathers.]

God ......................... worshiped other gods <0312 0430 05647> [served other gods.]

In the case of Abraham this was probably the case, till he was called to the knowledge of God, when above 70 years old.
