Joshua 6:12,13

Rams '-horns were apparently contemptible instruments. Silver trumpets had been used in the temple service. Numbers 10:2. But is there not a sweet instruction veiled under this? Jesus worketh by base things of the world to confound things that are mighty. The foolishness of preaching is blessed of Him, to throw down the wisdom of this world, as the walls of Jericho are made to fall at the blast of the ram's-horn. How sweetly Paul recounts this, when he says the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty. 2 Corinthians 10:4.
