Josué 24:30 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 24:30

And they buried him in the border of his inheritance
In a field belonging to his estate; for they buried not in towns and cities in those times. The Greek version adds,

``and they put into the tomb, in which he was buried, the stone knives with which he circumcised the children of Israel at Gilgal, when he brought them out of Egypt;''

and an Arabic writer ^F5 affirms the same, but without any foundation:

in Timnathserah, which [is] in Mount Ephraim;
which was his city, and where he dwelt; and of which (See Gill on Joshua 19:50); and his grave was near the city; here, they say ^F6, his father Nun, and Caleb also, were buried:

on the north side of the hill of Gaash;
of the brooks or valleys of Gnash mention is made in ( 2 Samuel 23:30 ) ; which very probably were at the bottom of this hill.

Josué 24:30 In-Context

28 Então Josué despediu o povo, cada um para a sua herança.

29 Depois destas coisas Josué, filho de Num, servo do Senhor, morreu, tendo cento e dez anos de idade;

30 e o sepultaram no território da sua herança, em Timnate-Sera, que está na região montanhosa de Efraim, para o norte do monte Gaás.

31 Serviu, pois, Israel ao Senhor todos os dias de Josué, e todos os dias dos anciãos que sobreviveram a Josué e que sabiam toda a obra que o Senhor tinha feito a favor de Israel.

32 Os ossos de José, que os filhos de Israel trouxeram do Egito, foram enterrados em Siquém, naquela parte do campo que Jacó comprara aos filhos de Hamor, pai de Siquém, por cem peças de prata, e que se tornara herança dos filhos de José.
