6 And when Joshua had sent the people away, the children of Israel went every man into his inheritance, to possess the land. 7 And the people served the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the Elders, that outlived Joshua, which had seen all the great works of the Lord, that he did for Israel.
6 And when Iosua had sent the people away, the children of Israel went euery man into his inheritance, to possesse the lande. 7 And the people serued the Lord al the dayes of Iosuah, and all the daies of the Elders, that outliued Iosua, which had sene al the great woorkes of the Lord, that he dyd for Israel.
This narration is therefore put in, to declare how long the Israelites kept the sincere and true worshipping of God. And it is said, that when they were come into the land of Canaan, they did their duty well as long as Joshua lived, & as long as the Elders were remaining, which had seen the wonderful works of God, which he had wrought for the Israelites sake. And undoubtedly it had been unaptly if this history should have declared the transgression of the Children of Israel, and should not have noted the time wherein it happened. Aptly therefore is the death of Joshua and the Elders which lived in his time, repeated in this place, and afterward is mentioned that an other age of men succeeded, which knew not God, neither had they seen his works. Wherefore the Israelites easily fell from the lawful worshipping of God.
This narration is therefore put in, to declare how long the Israelites kept the sincere and true woorshipping of God. And it is sayde, that when they were come into the land of Chanaan, they did their duty wel as long as Iosua lyued, & as long as the Elders wer remaining, which had sene the wonderful workes of God, which he had wrought for the Israelites sake. And vndoubtedlye it had bene vnaptly if this history should haue declared the transgression of the Chyldren of Israel, and should not haue noted the tyme wherein it happened. Aptlye therfore is the death of Iosua and the Elders which lyued in his tyme, repeated in this place, and afterwarde is mencioned that an other age of men succeeded, which knew not God, neither had they sene his workes. Wherefore the Israelites easely fel from the lawful worshipping of God.
