Josué 6:15

Listen to Josué 6:15
15 El séptimo día, a la salida del sol, se levantaron y marcharon alrededor de la ciudad tal como lo habían hecho los días anteriores, solo que en ese día repitieron la marcha siete veces.

Josué 6:15 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 6:15

And it came to pass on the seventh day
Which Jarchi says was the Sabbath day, and which is a common notion of the Jews F3; but whether it was or not, it is certain that one of these seven days must be a sabbath, in which the several things ordered were done, and the procession made. Kimchi observes, that their Rabbins say this was the sabbath day; and he adds, what is pretty remarkable,

``though they slew and burnt on the sabbath day, he that commanded the sabbath commanded to profane the sabbath in the subduing of Jericho;''

with which compare what our Lord says, ( Matthew 12:3-8 ) ;

that they rose early, about the dawning of the day;
having seven times the work to do they did on the other six days:

and compassed the city after the same manner seven times;
after the same manner as they had done the six preceding days:

only on that day they compassed the city seven times;
whereas on the other days they only went round it once, which distinguished this day from the rest.

Josué 6:15 In-Context

13 Los siete sacerdotes que llevaban las trompetas tomaron la delantera y marcharon al frente del arca mientras tocaban sus trompetas. Los hombres armados marchaban al frente de ellos, y tras el arca del SEÑOR marchaba la retaguardia. ¡Nunca dejaron de oírse las trompetas!
14 También en este segundo día marcharon una sola vez alrededor de Jericó, y luego regresaron al campamento. Así hicieron durante seis días.
15 El séptimo día, a la salida del sol, se levantaron y marcharon alrededor de la ciudad tal como lo habían hecho los días anteriores, solo que en ese día repitieron la marcha siete veces.
16 A la séptima vuelta, los sacerdotes tocaron las trompetas, y Josué le ordenó al ejército: «¡Empiecen a gritar! ¡El SEÑOR les ha entregado la ciudad!
17 Jericó, con todo lo que hay en ella, será destinada al exterminio como ofrenda al SEÑOR. Solo se salvarán la prostituta Rajab y los que se encuentren en su casa, porque ella escondió a nuestros mensajeros.
