SEV Biblia, Chapter 23:14
Y he aquí que yo entro hoy por el camino de toda la tierra; sabed, pues, con todo vuestro corazón y con toda vuestra alma, que no se ha perdido una palabra de todas las buenas palabras que el SEÑOR vuestro Dios había dicho de vosotros; todas os han venido, no se ha perdido de ellas ni una.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Joshua 23:14
Verse 14. The way of all the earth] I am about to die; I am going into the grave. Not one thing hath failed, &c.] God had so remarkably and literally fulfilled his promises, that not one of his enemies could state that even the smallest of them had not had its most literal accomplishment: this all Israel could testify.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 14. And, behold, this day I [am] going the way of all the earth , etc.] That is, about to die; not that precise day, but in a short time, of which the daily increasing infirmities of old age gave him notice. Death is a journey from this world to another, a man’s going to his long home, a path trodden by all men, and but once f524 ; a way in which all men without exception must and do walk, and even the best as well as the greatest of men, such as Joshua; no man is exempted from death, be he ever so great or good, ever so wise and knowing, ever so holy or so useful; (see 1 Kings 2:2); and ye know in all your hearts, and in all your souls ; in their consciences; it was a glaring truth, which none could deny; it had a testimony in every man’s breast: that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which the Lord your God hath spoken concerning you ; particularly concerning the good land, and the Lord’s bringing them into it, removing the old inhabitants, and settling them in their room, and putting them in possession of all temporal good things and spiritual privileges, as the word and ordinances: all are come to pass unto you, [and] not one thing hath failed thereof ; (see Joshua 21:45).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 11-16 - Would we cleave to the Lord, we must always stand upon our guard, for many a soul is lost through carelessness. Love the Lord your God, an you will not leave him. Has God been thus true to you? Be not you fals to him. He is faithful that has promised, Heb 10:23. The experience of every Christian witnesses the same truth. Conflicts may have bee severe and long, trials great and many; but at the last he wil acknowledge that goodness and mercy followed him all the days of his life. Joshua states the fatal consequences of going back; know for certainty it will be your ruin. The first step would be, friendshi with idolaters; the next would be, marrying with them; the end of tha would be, serving their gods. Thus the way of sin is down-hill, an those who have fellowship with sinners, cannot avoid having fellowshi with sin. He describes the destruction he warns them of. The goodnes of the heavenly Canaan, and the free and sure grant God has made of it will add to the misery of those who shall for ever be shut out from it Nothing will make them see how wretched they are, so much, as to se how happy they might have been. Let us watch and pray agains temptation. Let us trust in God's faithfulness, love, and power; let u plead his promises, and cleave to his commandments, then we shall be happy in life, in death, and for ever __________________________________________________________________
