Joshua 8:35 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 8:35

There was not a word of all that Moses commanded, which
Joshua read not
So punctually, precisely, and exactly did he observe the instructions and commands that were given him by Moses; and this he did in the most public manner:

before all the congregation of Israel;
who were on this occasion called together, and not before the men only, but

with the women, and little ones:
who all had a concern in the things that were read to them: yea, even

and the strangers that were conversant among them;
not the proselytes of righteousness only, but the proselytes of the gate, that dwelt, walked, and conversed with them.

Joshua 8:35 In-Context

33 All Israel, alien as well as citizen, with their elders and officers and their judges, stood on opposite sides of the ark in front of the levitical priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, half of them in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded at the first, that they should bless the people of Israel.
34 And afterward he read all the words of the law, blessings and curses, according to all that is written in the book of the law.
35 There was not a word of all that Moses commanded that Joshua did not read before all the assembly of Israel, and the women, and the little ones, and the aliens who resided among them.
