Josué 22:2 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 22:2

And said unto them, ye have kept all that Moses the servant of
the Lord commanded you
Which was, that they should leave their wives and children, and flocks, and herds, behind them in the land of Gilead, and pass over Jordan, with their brethren the children of Israel armed, and fight with them, and for them, until the Canaanites were subdued, and not return until their brethren were peaceably settled in the possession of their inheritances; all which they had punctually observed, and inviolably kept, as they agreed to, ( Numbers 32:1-42 ) ;

and have obeyed my voice in all that I commanded you;
as the generalissimo and commander in chief of the Israelitish forces; as what rank and position to be in, what part to take in an engagement, what attack to make, when and where, or on what expedition to go; wherever he ordered them to go, they went; and upon whatsoever and wheresoever he sent them, they readily and cheerfully obeyed, as they promised, ( Joshua 1:16 Joshua 1:17 ) ; and approved themselves as good soldiers under him; for all which he commends them, and gives them military honour.

Josué 22:2 In-Context

1 Las tribus del oriente regresan a su hogar
Entonces Josué convocó a la tribu de Rubén, a la tribu de Gad y a la media tribu de Manasés.

2 Les dijo: «Ustedes hicieron lo que Moisés, siervo del Señor
, les mandó, y obedecieron cada orden que yo les di.

3 Durante todo este tiempo, no abandonaron a las otras tribus. Se aseguraron de obedecer los mandatos del Señor
su Dios hasta el día de hoy.

4 Y ahora el Señor
su Dios ha dado descanso a las otras tribus, tal como se lo prometió. Así que vuelvan a su hogar, a la tierra que Moisés, el siervo del Señor
, les dio como posesión al oriente del río Jordán.

5 Pero asegúrense de obedecer todos los mandatos y las instrucciones que Moisés les dio. Amen al Señor
su Dios, anden en todos sus caminos, obedezcan sus mandatos, aférrense a él y sírvanlo con todo el corazón y con toda el alma».
