15

until the LORD has given your brothers rest, as he has given you, and they have also possessed the land which the LORD your God gives them. Then you shall return to the land of your possession and possess it, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise.’”

EXPLANATION

Verse 15. Beyond. The same expression is translated on this side, verse 14. Hebrew beheber means also, “in the passage.” If we have regard to Josue, when he spoke this, he was beyond, that is on the east side of the river, though perhaps ( Bible.) he might be on the other side when he wrote the history. Deuteronomy 1:1. Calmet.
