ExplanationCommentary
Verse 16. Sworn. God swore to give this land to the Hebrews, but not to this particular generation. His oath would be equally fulfilled by raising posterity to Moses, verse 13. But, at his entreaty, he spared the descendants of this people, and gave the land to their children under Josue. Bible.
