Giosué 6:3 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 6:3

And ye shall compass the city, all [ye] men of war
Joshua their chief commander under the Lord, and all that were able to make war, even all above twenty years of age; these were to compass the city, not in the form of a siege, but by a procession around it:

[and] go round about the city once;
or one time, for the first once in a day, and no more:

thus shall thou do six days;
one after another; that is, go round it, once every day, for such a time. This order was given, according to the Jews F23, the twenty second of Nisan, after the feast of unleavened bread was over.

Giosué 6:3 In-Context

1 Or Gerico era ben chiusa e barricata per paura de’ figliuoli d’Israele; nessuno ne usciva e nessuno v’entrava.
2 E l’Eterno disse a Giosuè: "Vedi, io do in tua mano Gerico, il suo re, i suoi prodi guerrieri.
3 Voi tutti dunque, uomini di guerra, circuite la città, facendone il giro una volta. Così farai per sei giorni;
4 e sette sacerdoti porteranno davanti all’arca sette trombe squillanti; il settimo giorno farete il giro della città sette volte, e i sacerdoti soneranno le trombe.
5 E avverrà, che quand’essi soneranno a distesa il corno squillante e voi udrete il suono delle trombe, tutto il popolo darà in un gran grido, e le mura della città crolleranno, e il popolo salirà, ciascuno diritto dinanzi a sé".
