Commentary

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary
**26. Joshua drew not his hand back--**Perhaps, from the long continuance of the posture, it might have been a means appointed by God, to animate the people, and kept up in the same devout spirit as Moses had shown, in lifting up his hands, until the work of slaughter had been completed--the ban executed. (See on Ex 17:10).
