Joshua 23:14 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

I am going the way of all the earth That is, of all flesh, or of all men; the way which all men go; I am about to die, as all men must. To die is to go a journey, a journey to our long home. And Joshua himself, though he could so ill be spared, cannot be exempted from this common lot. He takes notice of it, that they might look on these as his dying words, and regard them accordingly. Ye know That is, you know assuredly: your own experience puts it out of all question.
