Josh 9:11-13


Joshua 9:11-13
KJV(i) 11 Wherefore our elders and all the inhabitants of our country spake to us, saying, Take victuals with you for the journey, and go to meet them, and say unto them, We are your servants: therefore now make ye a league with us. 12 This our bread we took hot for our provision out of our houses on the day we came forth to go unto you; but now, behold, it is dry, and it is mouldy: 13 And these bottles of wine, which we filled, were new; and, behold, they be rent: and these our garments and our shoes are become old by reason of the very long journey.

Joshua 9:11-13 Knox Bible
11 So the elders and the rest of our fellow-citizens bade us take provisions to last us through our travels, and come to meet you, assuring you of our humble duty and begging for an alliance.

12 Only look at the bread we took with us, hot from the oven at home, when we set out to find you, how dry it is, how it crumbles after being kept so long!

13 The new wine-skins we filled are all torn and leaking; the very clothes we wear, the very shoes on our feet, have worn out in our travels, and all but worn away.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.

11 This is what these people planned and hoped they would make a peace treaty with them that they would have to honor and this treaty would spare them from losing in a battle.

12 Again this isn’t as they say it is phony, they didn’t come from afar off. This world will try to trick us but they cant trick God and if we trust and seek Him then we wouldn’t be fooled either.

13 They point out all the things that they were using to mislead them. The problem is when we are being mislead often times people will point out the things they are using to mislead us. They should have been more talking about making the peace treaty rather then convincing them, that fact they focus more on this could have been a clue that they were liars
