Thematic Bible



Then Joshua built an altar unto the LORD God of Israel, in mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded the children of Israel, according as it is written in the book of the law of Moses: an altar of rough stone over which no tool of iron was lifted. And they sacrificed thereon burnt sacrifice, and offered peace offerings.


And the LORD said unto Joshua, "Get thee up, wherefore liest thou thus upon thy face?


And when Joshua was come to Jericho, he lift up his eyes and looked: and behold there stood a man before him with his sword drawn in his hand. And Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, "Art thou on our side or on our adversaries?" And he answered, "Nay, but I am the captain of the host of the LORD and am now come." And Joshua fell on his face to the earth and did reverence, and said unto him, "What sayeth my Lord unto his servant?" And the captain of the LORD's host said unto Joshua, "Put thy shoes off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy." And Joshua did so.
