SEV Biblia, Chapter 6:16

Y cuando los sacerdotes hubieron tocado las trompetas la séptima vez, Josué dijo al pueblo: Dad grita, porque el SEÑOR os ha entregado la ciudad.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 16. And it came to pass at the seventh time , etc.] Of their going round the city on the seventh day: and at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets ; as they did every time they compassed the city: Joshua said unto the people, shout ; both those that were armed, and those that were not; they were to make one grand and general shout at once, as when victory is obtained, or is sure, and so it follows: for the Lord hath given you the city ; intimating that it would be presently delivered into their hands, and in such manner, that it would plainly show it was of the Lord, and no other.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 6-16 - Wherever the ark went, the people attended it. God's ministers, by the trumpet of the everlasting gospel, which proclaims liberty and victory must encourage the followers of Christ in their spiritual warfare. A promised deliverances must be expected in God's way, so they must be expected in his time. At last the people were to shout: they did so and the walls fell. This was a shout of faith; they believed the wall of Jericho would fall. It was a shout of prayer; they cry to Heaven for help, and help came.
