Joz 1, 1-18

1 And after the death of Moses, the servant of the Lord, it happened that the Lord spoke to Joshua, the son of Nun, the minister of Moses, and he said to him: 2 “Moses, my servant, has died. Rise up, and cross this Jordan, you and all the people with you, into the land which I will give to the sons of Israel. 3 I will deliver to you every place that the step of your foot will tread upon, 116 just as I said to Moses. 4 From the desert and from Lebanon, even to the great river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, as far as the great sea opposite the setting of the sun, shall be your border. 5 No one will be able to resist you during all the days of your life. Just as I was with Moses, so will I be with you. I will not leave you, nor will I forsake you. 6 Be strengthened and be steadfast. For you shall divide by lot, to this people, the land about which I swore to their fathers that I would deliver it to them. 7 Therefore, be strengthened and be very steadfast, so that you may observe and accomplish the entire law, which Moses, my servant, instructed to you. You may not turn aside from it to the right, nor to the left. So may you understand all that you should do. 8 The book of this law shall not depart from your mouth. Instead, you shall meditate upon it, day and night, so that you may observe and do all the things that are written in it. Then you shall direct your way and understand it. 9 Behold, I am instructing you. Be strengthened, and be steadfast. Do not dread, and do not fear. For the Lord your God is with you in all things, wherever you may go.” 10 And Joshua instructed the leaders of the people, saying: “Cross through the midst of the camp, and command the people, and say: 11 ‘Prepare your food supplies. For after the third day, you shall cross the Jordan, and you shall enter so as to possess the land, which the Lord your God will give to you.’ ” 12 Likewise, he said to the Reubenites and to the Gadites, and to the one half tribe of Manasseh: 13 “Remember the words, which Moses, the servant of the Lord, instructed to you, saying: ‘The Lord your God has given you rest, and has given you all the land.’ 14 Your wives and sons, as well as the cattle, shall remain in the land which Moses delivered to you beyond the Jordan. But as for you, pass over with weapons, before your brothers, all you who are strong of hand, and fight on their behalf, 15 until the Lord gives rest to your brothers, just as he has given to you, and until they also possess the land, which the Lord your God will give to them. And so shall you be returned to the land of your possession. And you shall live in the land, which Moses, the servant of the Lord, gave to you beyond the Jordan, opposite the rising of the sun.” 16 And they responded to Joshua, and they said: “All that you have instructed to us, we shall do. And wherever you will send us, we shall go. 17 Just as we obeyed Moses in all things, so shall we obey you also. But may the Lord your God be with you, just as he was with Moses. 18 Whoever will contradict your mouth, and whoever will not obey all of your words, which you will instruct to him, let him die. But may you be strengthened, and may you act manfully.”

Verš 1

And after the death of Moses, the servant of the Lord, it happened that the Lord spoke to Joshua, the son of Nun, the minister of Moses, and he said to him:

Dt 34:5 - And Moses, the servant of the Lord, died in that place, in the land of Moab, by order of the Lord.

Dt 1:38 - But Joshua, the son of Nun, your minister, shall himself enter on your behalf. Exhort and strengthen this man, and he himself shall divide the land by lot to Israel.

Verš 3

I will deliver to you every place that the step of your foot will tread upon, 116 just as I said to Moses.

Dt 11:24 - Every place upon which your foot shall tread will be yours. From the desert, and from Lebanon, from the great river Euphrates, as far as the western sea, shall be your borders.

Joz 14:9 - And Moses swore, on that day, saying: ‘The land that your foot has tread upon shall be your possession, and that of your sons, unto eternity. For you have followed the Lord my God.’

Verš 5

No one will be able to resist you during all the days of your life. Just as I was with Moses, so will I be with you. I will not leave you, nor will I forsake you.

Dt 31:6 - Act manfully and be strengthened. Do not be afraid, and do not dread at the sight of them. For the Lord your God himself is your commander, and he will neither dismiss nor abandon you.”

Dt 31:8 - And the Lord, who is your commander, will himself be with you. He will neither renounce nor abandon you. Do not be afraid, and do not dread.”

Heb 13:5 - Let your behavior be 690 without avarice; be content with what you are offered. For he himself has said, “I will not abandon you, and I will not neglect you.”

Verš 6

Be strengthened and be steadfast. For you shall divide by lot, to this people, the land about which I swore to their fathers that I would deliver it to them.

Dt 31:23 - And the Lord instructed Joshua, the son of Nun, and he said: “Be strong and valiant. For you shall lead the sons of Israel into the land which I have promised, and I will be with you.”

Verš 7

Therefore, be strengthened and be very steadfast, so that you may observe and accomplish the entire law, which Moses, my servant, instructed to you. You may not turn aside from it to the right, nor to the left. So may you understand all that you should do.

Dt 5:32 - And so, keep and do the things which the Lord God has commanded you. You shall not turn aside, neither to the right, nor to the left.

Dt 28:14 - and will not turn aside from them, neither to the right, nor to the left, nor follow strange gods, nor worship them.

Verš 8

The book of this law shall not depart from your mouth. Instead, you shall meditate upon it, day and night, so that you may observe and do all the things that are written in it. Then you shall direct your way and understand it.

Ž 1:2 - But his will is with the law of the Lord, and he will meditate on his law, day and night.

Joz 1,1 - O smrti Mojžišovej a národnom smútku pozri Nm 20,12; Dt 32,48.51; 34, 4 n.7 n. Po Mojži šovi vedenie izraelského národa preberá Jozue (Nm 27,18 nn.). Jozue – hebr. Jehóšúa (skr. Jéšúa’) = Jahve je spása alebo Jahve, pomôž! Zo slov: "…Pán povedal Jozuemu…" vysvitá, že Jozue sa riadi Božími pokynmi, svojím počínaním plní vôľu Božiu.

Joz 1,4 - Hranice Kanaánu – budúcej vlasti Izraelitov – ako sú tu udané (porov. Gn 15,18; Ex 23,31; Dt 11,24), sú ideálne hranice zasľúbenej zeme a veľmi presahujú územie rozdelené v hlavách 13 – 19.

Joz 1,10 - Náčelníci ľudu, hebr. šóterím ,pisári', boli podľa našich pojmov úradníci. (Úradníkom mohol sa stať len ten, kto vedel písať.) Ich funkcia sa kryla s funkciou niekdajších krajových kniežat alebo krajových predstavených. Vyhlasovali úradné nariadenia a starali sa, aby tieto rozkazy boli aj plnené. Kedy vydal Jozue tento rozkaz? Svätopiscovi zrejme nešlo pri písaní o zachovanie prísneho chronologického postupu udalostí, ale chcel podať len presný obraz o prípravách na prechod cez Jordán do Kanaánu.

Joz 1,12-15 - O rozdelení Zajordán ska medzi Rubenovcov, Gadovcov a polovicu kmeňa Manassesa pozri Nm 32. Mojžišov rozkaz, ktorý tu Jozue pripomína zajordánskym kmeňom, nájdeš v Dt 3,18 nn. Porov. tiež Nm 32. Výraz "za Jordánom" treba brať zo stanoviska spisovateľa, ktorý už žije v Predjordánsku, t. j. v západnej Palestíne.
