7So Joshua and his whole army, including all the mighty men of valor, came from Gilgal.
“Here for the first time Israel does not initiate the aggression but responds to an ally’s appeal.” (Hess)
Sense of Honor
“We should have the same sense of honor. Though Joshua was only bound to not kill the Gibeonites himself (Joshua 9:15), he also felt obliged to fulfill the spirit of the vow he made to the Gibeonites.” (Guzik)
John 5: 23 so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.
Romans 2: 10but glory, honor, and peace for everyone who does good, first for the Jew, then for the Greek.
Revelation 4: 9And whenever the living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to the One seated on the throne who lives forever and ever,
The Bible says a lot about honor. Honor to God, the Son and to man.
Do you have the same sense of honor?
Blessings
