Joshua 8:23-29

The sacred historian relates in those verses, the improvement which Israel made of their victory; and a glorious one it was; because there was nothing done here, but what was agreeable to the divine appointment. If the Reader keeps in view, the spiritual sense of those wars he meets with in the holy word, and recollects while reading those accounts, that these things were typical of Jesus and his army, subduing all the enemies of our salvation; his mind will be led to this most certain conclusion, that the victory cannot be complete, until the Lord Jesus hath put all his enemies under his footstool. See 1 Corinthians 15:25, compared with Hebrews 2:9; Hebrews 2:9.
