Christ’s death under judgment in the
believer’s place, and the believer's
perfect deliverance from judgment.
See Ps. 42:7 and 88:7; Josh. 12:31-33.
The stones in the Jordan stand typic-
ally for Ps. 22:1-18.
In chapter five is the record of the
reproach of unbelief, ¢rolled away”
(v. 9) the cessation of the manna (Vv.
12) and the appearance of the “cap-
tain of the Lord's host” (vv. 13-16)
unto Joshua as he was making a re-
conjaissance before Jericho.
l.. God’s Orders, vv. 1-5. The fame
of the Israelites had preceded them
(ch. 2:9) and that this was added
too by the miraculous deliverance at
the Jordan is suggested in verse one.
Verse two suggests that again they
must proceed upon the bare word of
Jehovah, and humanly speaking, how
utterly absurd appear the divine or-
ders.
Jehovah's Word Followed.
11. Joshua’s Instructions, vv. 6-8.
A reading of this section reveals the
fact that Joshua diligently followed
out the word of Jehovah. Preceding
the people was the ark, and we need
to remember what it contained and
that it is a type of Christ» Following
the armed men and the priests came
the silent host (v. 10). No other
sound than that of the trumpet (¥.
13). :
The walls of Jericho are not to fall
by the use of the ordinary imple
ments of war, see 2 Cor. 10:4, and
the resultant victory was im no way
‘to give opportunity for human boast-
ing, Eph. 2:9; 1 Cor. 1:26:29. Joshua
did not set forth a “more reasonable
method;” he did not alter God's or-
ders; that he had no right to do, nor
have we, Rev. 22:18, 19; John 3:2;
Matt. 15:6. The implements and the
methods were foolish to . those in
Jericho and to all unbelievers, see 1
Cor. 1:21-26. It was the priests who
led with the “jubilee trumpets,” typi-
cal of the gospel which Paul tells is
the “power of God,” Rom. 1:16.
111. The Obedient People, vv. 9-16.
One great act of distrust and dis
obedience led to those years of aim-
less wandering accompanied by dis-
comfort and resulting in death to all
(save two, Caleb and Joshua) who
crossed the Red Sea with Moses.
Here we have the contrast. Seven
days of patient, obedient marching,
according to specific orders, is fol-
lowed by victory and possession.
What a strange sight this cavalcade
must have made. The trumpet blow-
ing priests; the ark, symbolic of Je
hovah’s presence and typical of
Christ: the silent multitude. Verily
this new generation is being tested
ere they enter into their promised in-
heritance. On the seventh day they
arose earlier and were subjected ‘to a
seven-fold test. Our fiercest testing
is generally just before the moment
of our greatest victory.
Saved by Faith.
Faith used means ordered of ‘God,
foolish to man, and wrought a great
victory. Faithful obedience is here
wonderfully contrasted with former
unfaithfuiness. Joshua directs the
spies to search out Rahab and she
.and her household are saved aecord-
ing to promise, VV. 22-25. She also
was saved by faith, Heb. 11:31, and
became one of the line from which
©hrist came, Matt. 1:5. The only
part of the wall that remained stand-
ing was that where Rahab’s house
stood, vv. 22, see chapter 2:15.
“The teaching is very plain. As the
Israelites depended wholly upon God,
were obedient to his orders, accepted
his discipline, held back all passion
and covetousness, they entered into
the fruits of a victory that made easy
many subsequent ones. Their acts of
faith were a more severe test than
those more visible and ‘carnal means
of fighting battles. /
As these people of God had crossed
the Jorddn, submitted to the rite of
circumeision, took their ‘first march
in this land of promise &nd captured
this walled city which stood in the
way of their progress, the unbelief of
forty years was rebuked. This was a
day of vindication for Caleb and
Joshua, a day of proving that God
was able to give victory to the people
in whom he’ delighted.
The Golden Text illustrates what
it is to believe, when we recall the
gtory from which it is taken—obedi-
ent faith in spite of appearances. No
one can deny the absurdity of a peo-
ple walking around the walls of a
city blowing rams’ horns and expect:
ing to possess it. Faith in both of
these incidents depended upon the
word of God and did the apparently
foolish thing, thereby demonstrating
{ts wisdom, and his power.
Faith is revealed also as the power
to wait and to persist. Faith is co
operation with God in the accomplish-
and healthy condition.
