Joshua 6:2

And the Lord said The interview between the Hebrew leader and "the Prince of Jehovah's host" is here resumed.

As Israel had stood on the shores of the Red Sea and seen "the salvation of God," so now they were themselves to adopt no warlike measures for the capture of the city, everything was to be done forthem, not bythem: the victory when achieved was to be one, "into which no feeling of pride or self-exaltation could enter."
