Joshua 5:10 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

The children of Israel kept the passover Which was their third passover: the first was in Egypt, Exodus 12.; the second at mount Sinai, Numbers 9.; the third here; for in their wilderness travels, these and several other sacrifices were neglected, Amos 5:25. While they were in the wilderness, they were denied the comfort of this ordinance, as a further token of God's displeasure. But now God comforted them again, after the time that he had afflicted them.

Joshua 5:10

10 And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal, and kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at even in the plains of Jericho.
