Joshua is not here named, because he was not now among the people, but a constant attendant upon Moses; nor was he to be reckoned as one of them, any more than Moses and Aaron were, because he was to be their chief commander. Another spirit with him, i.e. was a man of another temper and carriage, faithful and courageous, not acted by that evil spirit of cowardice, unbelief, unthankfulness, disobedience, which ruled in his brethren, but by the Spirit of God. Fully, i.e. universally and constantly, in and through difficulties and dangers, which made his partners halt. The land whereinto he went; in general, Canaan, and particularly Hebron, and the adjacent parts, Joshua 14:9. Shall possess it, or, shall expel it, i.e. its inhabitants, the land being oft put for the people of it. Compare Joshua 8:7, Joshua 14:12.
