SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:6
Y el ángel del SEÑOR protestó al mismo Josué, diciendo:
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 6. And the Angel of the Lord protested unto Joshua, saying .] He not only gave his word, but annexed his oath; he called as it were heaven and earth to witness; and this he did to confirm the faith of Joshua in the promises he was about to make, as well as in the blessings of grace bestowed upon him; as the pardon of his sins, the justification of his person, and acceptance with God.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 6-10 - All whom God calls to any office he finds fit, or makes so. The Lor will cause the sins of the believer to pass away by his sanctifyin grace, and will enable him to walk in newness of life. As the promise made to David often pass into promises of the Messiah, so the promise to Joshua look forward to Christ, of whose priesthood Joshua's was shadow. Whatever trials we pass through, whatever services we perform our whole dependence must rest on Christ, the Branch of righteousness He is God's servant, employed in his work, obedient to his will devoted to his honour and glory. He is the Branch from which all ou fruit must be gathered. The eye of his Father was upon him, especiall in his sufferings, and when he was buried in the grave, as the foundation-stones are under ground, out of men's sight. But the prophecy rather denotes the attention paid to this preciou Corner-stone. All believers, from the beginning, had looked forward to it in the types and predictions. All believers, after Christ's coming would look to it with faith, hope, and love. Christ shall appear for all his chosen, as the high priest when before the Lord, with the name of all Israel graven in the precious stones of his breastplate. When God gave a remnant to Christ, to be brought through grace to glory then he engraved this precious stone. By him sin shall be taken away both the guilt and the dominion of it; he did it in one day, that da in which he suffered and died. What should terrify when sin is take away? Then nothing can hurt, and we sit down under Christ's shadow with delight, and are sheltered by it. And gospel grace, coming with power makes men forward to draw others to it __________________________________________________________________
