for his Death The Children likewise lamented because in their tender years they had understood the virtue and samous Acts of Moses Who beholding their affection could not restrain himself from Tears Afterward he walked toward the place where he was to die and they all followed him weeping when beckoning to them to stand still and not afflict him any longer with their griefs having appointed Joshua to be his Successor to head the Armies against the Canaanites according to the Command of God and laid his hands on him he went accompanied only with him and Eleazer the High Priest up to the Mount Abarim which is very high and from whence he could discover the greatest part of the Land of Canaan where taking his last leave of Joshua and Eleazer with many endearing imbraces on a sudden a Cloud incompassed him and he was carried into a certain Valley where he died and was buried The whole time of his Life was a hundred and twenty years the third part whereof he spent in governing this great People In Counsel and Judgment he had no equal In Eloquence he was incomparable His skill in War made him renowned amongst the greatest Captains and no man had the gift of Prophecy in so great a degree for his words seemed as so many Oracles and as if inspired by God himself The People mourned for him thirty days with real grief and trouble In short he left behind him a great estimation among all who were acquainted with his Virtues and Graces After Moses was taken from among men and the time of mourning past Joshua a man in whom was the Spirit of wisdom commanded the People to prepare and march forward to battel Sending spies to Jericho to sound their minds and discover their Forces and then raising his Camp he proceeded toward the River Jordan And the Princes of the Tribes of Reuben and Gad and of the half Tribe of Manasses to whom the Countrey of the Amorites which was the Seventh part of Canaan was given for an habitation having furnished him with Fifty ●housand men he proceeded toward the Enemy At which time the Spies returning and having surveyed Jericho gave an Account thereof and likewise how narrowly they escaped having been hid by Rahab the Harlot under some packs of Linnen who being thus delivered from danger by her means she desired them to swear That when they should take Jericho and kill all the Inhabitants with the Sword as she knew that God had commanded they would save her life and the lives of her family as she had saved theirs Which they accordingly agreed to advising her that when she should perceive the City ready to be taken she should bring all that she would have spared into her own house and then hang a red Cloth over her door that the General observing the sign might forbid the Soldiers from plundring or destroying her or hers After this she let them down with a rope from the Wall whereby they escaped back again Joshua having this account seemed somewhat concerned how they should pass over the River Jordan because it was deep and without Bridges But God promised him they should have a safe passage over Joshua therefore waited with his Army two days and then passed over the River the Priests going first with the Ark who as soon as they had set their feet in the Water which was then very high it being in harvest the Waters from above rose up in an heap and the Priests stood on dry ground in the midst of Jordan till all the People passed quite over and then according to Gods command they took out of the middle of the River Twelve Stones wherewith to build an Altar for a Memorial to after-ages of this wonderful deliverance And all things being finisht the Priests came out of the River which instantly after flowed with as much violence as before Whilst the Israelites did all this the Canaanites never sallied out upon them but dismayed with fear kept themselves within the Walls of Jericho which Joshua resolved to besiege with all his Forces But God commanded him that on the first day of the feast the Priests leaving the Ark and guarded on every side with Troops of armed men should draw near Jericho sound-Seven Rams horns and at night to return to their Camp This they performed six days together but on the Seventh Joshua assembled the People early and caused them to incompass the City seven times that day and the Trumpets sounding with great force the Walls by the power of God without any violence used by the Hebrews fell down flat to the ground so that entring the City over the ruines they put all within it to the Sword the Enemy through the sudden astonishment that fell upon them being unable to resist and so great was the slaughter that they neither spared Women nor Children but filled the City with dead Carcases which at length being set on fire served for a funeral flame to consume them Only Rahab and her houshold were saved by the Spies and Joshua bestowed an Inheritance upon her and ever after held her in great honour Then Joshua denounced Curses on those who should endeavour to rebuild this City foretelling That he should lay the foundation thereof in the days of his Eldest Son and should lose his youngest ere it was finished There was much Spoil taken both of Gold Silver and Brass in this City and Joshua having before commanded that all the Gold and Silver should be brought to one place to offer to God as the first fruits for his assistance none of them but only one man kept any thing to himself all being delivered to the Priests to be laid up in the Treasury but Achan the Son of Zebedias of the Tribe of Judah having got the Kings Coat imbroidered with Gold and a Wedge of Gold of two hundred Shekels in weight and thinking it unjust that what he had got with the hazard of his Life should be taken from him he digged a Pit in his Tent and buried his Spoils therein designing to defraud God as well as his Companions At this time the Israelites Ten●s were pitched in Gilgal which signifies Liberty because being delivered from Egyptian bondage and the wants of the wilderness they now thought they had nothing more to fear A few days after the distruction of Jericho Joshua sent out three thousand armed men against Ai a City hard by who encountring with their adversarys the Israelites were put to flight and lost thirty six men The news of this disaster being brought to the Camp they were much astonished not only for the men they had lost but dispairing of future success since they perswaded themselves they were already Masters of the Feild and that their Army should be always Victorious according to the promise of God and that this advantage would much incourage their Enemies So that cloathing themselves in Sackcloth they spent three days in tears and lamentations without taking any meat
