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 the Israelites, with their elders, officials and judges, were standing on both sides of the ark of the covenant of the LORD, facing the Levitical priests who carried it. Both the foreigners living among them and the native-born were there. Half of the people stood in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of the LORD had formerly commanded when he gave instructions to bless the people of Israel.
34 Afterward, Joshua read all the words of the law—the blessings and the curses—just as it is written in the Book of the Law.
35 There was not a word of all that Moses had commanded that Joshua did not read to the whole assembly of Israel, including the women and children, and the foreigners who lived among them.
