Joshua 23:15 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 23:15

Therefore it shall come to pass, [that] as all the good
things are come upon you which the Lord hath promised you
Of which there was full proof, and it could not be denied:

so shall the Lord bring upon you all evil things;
calamities and distresses, by his sore judgments of famine, sword, pestilence, evil beasts, and captivity, in case of disobedience to his commands:

until he have destroyed you from off this good land which the Lord your
God hath given you;
for as he is faithful to his promises, so to his threatenings; and from his punctual performance of the one may be argued and expected the sure fulfilment of the other, and which has been abundantly verified in that people; see ( Leviticus 26:1-46 ) ( Deuteronomy 28:1-68 ) and the notes there.

Joshua 23:15 In-Context

13 know that the Lord will no more destroy these nations from before you; and they will be to you snares and stumbling-blocks, and nails in your heels, and darts in your eyes, until ye be destroyed from off this good land, which the Lord your God has given you.

14 But I hasten to go the way , as all that are upon the earth also : and ye know in your heart and in your soul, that not one word has fallen of all the words which the Lord our God has spoken respecting all that concerns us; there has not one of them failed.

15 And it shall come to pass, that as all the good things are come upon us which the Lord God will bring upon you all the evil things, until he shall have destroyed you from off this good land, which the Lord has given you,

16 when ye transgress the covenant of the Lord our God, which he has charged us, and go and serve other gods, and bow down to them.
