7 you are to rise up from ambush and take the city. The Lord your God will give it into your hand.
7 Then ye shall rise up from the ambush, and seize upon the city: for the Lord your God will deliver it into your hand.
7 Then you shall rise up from the ambush and seize the city, for the Lord your God will give it into your hand.
7 That's your signal to spring from your ambush and take the city. God, your God, will hand it to you on a platter.
7 Then you shall rise from the ambush and seize the city, for the Lord your God will deliver it into your hand.
7 you will jump up from your ambush and take possession of the town, for the Lord your God will give it to you.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Joshua 8:7
Commentary on Joshua 8:3-22
(Read Joshua 8:3-22)
Observe Joshua's conduct and prudence. Those that would maintain their spiritual conflicts must not love their ease. Probably he went into the valley alone, to pray to God for a blessing, and he did not seek in vain. He never drew back till the work was done. Those that have stretched out their hands against their spiritual enemies, must never draw them back.
