Joshua 1:15

15 The Lord has given you a place to rest and will do the same for your brothers. But you must help them until they take the land the Lord their God is giving them. Then you may return to your own land east of the Jordan River, the land that Moses, the servant of the Lord, gave you."

Joshua 1:15 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 1:15

Until the Lord hath given your brethren rest, as [he hath
given] you
Rest from their travels, as they had:

and they also have possessed the land which the Lord your God giveth
them:
are settled in the land of Canaan, as they were on that side Jordan:

then ye shall return unto the land of your possession, and enjoy it;
the countries of Sihon and Og, they were put into the possession of:

which Moses the Lord's servant gave you on this side Jordan, toward
the sunrising;
the land, given to them lay to the east of Jordan.

Joshua 1:15 In-Context

13 "Remember what Moses, the servant of the Lord, told you. He said the Lord your God would give you rest and would give you this land.
14 Now the Lord has given you this land east of the Jordan River. Your wives, children, and animals may stay here, but your fighting men must dress for war and cross the Jordan River ahead of your brothers to help them.
15 The Lord has given you a place to rest and will do the same for your brothers. But you must help them until they take the land the Lord their God is giving them. Then you may return to your own land east of the Jordan River, the land that Moses, the servant of the Lord, gave you."
16 Then the people answered Joshua, "Anything you command us to do, we will do. Any place you send us, we will go.
17 Just as we fully obeyed Moses, we will obey you. We ask only that the Lord your God be with you just as he was with Moses.
