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 The Israelites, with their leaders, officers, and judges, as well as the foreigners among them, stood on two sides of the Lord's Covenant Box, facing the levitical priests who carried it. Half of the people stood with their backs to Mount Gerizim and the other half with their backs to Mount Ebal. The Lord's servant Moses had commanded them to do this when the time came for them to receive the blessing.

34 Joshua then read aloud the whole Law, including the blessings and the curses, just as they are written in the book of the Law.

35 Every one of the commandments of Moses was read by Joshua to the whole gathering, which included women and children, as well as the foreigners living among them.
