Moses And Joshua

and moses said unto joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in mine hand.

So joshua did as moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.

and the LORD said unto moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.

and moses rose up, and his minister joshua: and moses went up into the mount of God.

and when joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.

• Moses
• Communion

and the LORD spake unto moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend. and he turned again into the camp: but his servant joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle.

and joshua the son of Nun, the servant of moses, one of his young men, answered and said, My lord moses, forbid them.

• Joshua

and the LORD said unto moses, Take thee joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;

and moses did as the LORD commanded him: and he took joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation:

So concerning them moses commanded Eleazar the priest, and joshua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel:

and moses called unto joshua, and said unto him in the sight of all Israel, Be strong and of a good courage: for thou must go with this people unto the land which the LORD hath sworn unto their fathers to give them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit it.

• JOSHUA
• Call

and the LORD said unto moses, Behold, thy days approach that thou must die: call joshua, and present yourselves in the tabernacle of the congregation, that I may give him a charge. and moses and joshua went, and presented themselves in the tabernacle of the congregation.

and joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom; for moses had laid his hands upon him: and the children of Israel hearkened unto him, and did as the LORD commanded moses.

and the LORD said unto joshua, This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with moses, so I will be with thee.

For the priests which bare the ark stood in the midst of Jordan, until every thing was finished that the LORD commanded joshua to speak unto the people, according to all that moses commanded joshua: and the people hasted and passed over.

On that day the LORD magnified joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him, as they feared moses, all the days of his life.

There was not a word of all that moses commanded, which joshua read not before all the congregation of Israel, with the women, and the little ones, and the strangers that were conversant among them.

and they answered joshua, and said, Because it was certainly told thy servants, how that the LORD thy God commanded his servant moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you, therefore we were sore afraid of our lives because of you, and have done this thing.

and all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them, did joshua take, and smote them with the edge of the sword, and he utterly destroyed them, as moses the servant of the LORD commanded.

• Joshua
• Obedience

As the LORD commanded moses his servant, so did moses command joshua, and so did joshua; he left nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded moses.

So joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD said unto moses; and joshua gave it for an inheritance unto Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. and the land rested from war.

• CALEB
• Decision

Then the children of Judah came unto joshua in Gilgal: and Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite said unto him, Thou knowest the thing that the LORD said unto moses the man of God concerning me and thee in Kadeshbarnea. Forty years old was I when moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadeshbarnea to espy out the land; and I brought him word again as it was in mine heart. Nevertheless my brethren that went up with me made the heart of the people melt: but I wholly followed the LORD my God. and moses sware on that day, saying, Surely the land whereon thy feet have trodden shall be thine inheritance, and thy children's for ever, because thou hast wholly followed the LORD my God. read more and now, behold, the LORD hath kept me alive, as he said, these forty and five years, even since the LORD spake this word unto moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness: and now, lo, I am this day fourscore and five years old. As yet I am as strong this day as I was in the day that moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, both to go out, and to come in. Now therefore give me this mountain, whereof the LORD spake in that day; for thou heardest in that day how the Anakims were there, and that the cities were great and fenced: if so be the LORD will be with me, then I shall be able to drive them out, as the LORD said. and joshua blessed him, and gave unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh Hebron for an inheritance. Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite unto this day, because that he wholly followed the LORD God of Israel. and the name of Hebron before was Kirjatharba; which Arba was a great man among the Anakims. and the land had rest from war. show less

• Government

and they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, The LORD commanded moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren. Therefore according to the commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father.

Now to the one half of the tribe of Manasseh moses had given possession in Bashan: but unto the other half thereof gave joshua among their brethren on this side Jordan westward. and when joshua sent them away also unto their tents, then he blessed them,
