Joshua (son of Nun)

여호수아 (눈의 아들)

Fights Amalek at Moses’ command in Exodus 17. Exodus 24:13 calls him Moses’ servant, and 33:11 Moses’ servant Joshua the son of Nun, a young man. In Numbers 11:28 he asks Moses to forbid Eldad and Medad, who are prophesying in the camp. Numbers 13:8 lists the spy from the tribe of Ephraim as Hoshea the son of Nun, and 13:16 says Moses called him Joshua. At 14:6–9 he and Caleb tear their clothes and tell the congregation that the land is exceedingly good; 14:30 excepts him and Caleb from those counted who shall not come into the land, and 14:38 has the two of them remain alive of the men who went to spy it out. Numbers 26:65 names him with Caleb as the only ones left of those counted in the wilderness of Sinai, and in 27:18–23 Moses, as the LORD commanded, sets him before Eleazar the priest and all the congregation, lays his hands on him and commissions him. Numbers 32:12 says he and Caleb followed the LORD completely, and 34:17 names him with Eleazar the priest to divide the land for inheritance. Deuteronomy 1:38 has the LORD say, “Joshua the son of Nun, who stands before you, shall go in there. Encourage him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it”; 3:21–22 says, “I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, ‘… So shall the LORD do to all the kingdoms where you go over. You shall not fear them; for the LORD your God himself fights for you’”; and 3:28 has the LORD say, “But commission Joshua, and encourage him, and strengthen him; for he shall go over before this people.” Deuteronomy 31:7–8 has Moses call him and say to him in the sight of all Israel, “Be strong and courageous, for you shall go with this people into the land which the LORD has sworn to their fathers to give them; and you shall cause them to inherit it”; at 31:14–15 the LORD tells Moses, “Call Joshua, and present yourselves in the Tent of Meeting, that I may commission him,” and Moses and Joshua present themselves there; and 31:23 says, “He commissioned Joshua the son of Nun, and said, ‘Be strong and courageous …’”, where the Korean Revised Version names the LORD as the one who commands him. Deuteronomy 32:44 says that Moses and Joshua the son of Nun spoke all the words of the song in the ears of the people; 34:9 says that Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands on him, and that the children of Israel listened to Joshua and did as the LORD commanded Moses. Joshua 1:1–9 says that after the death of Moses the servant of the LORD, the LORD spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ servant, saying, “Now therefore arise, go across this Jordan, you and all these people, to the land which I am giving to them, even to the children of Israel,” “As I was with Moses, so I will be with you,” “you shall cause this people to inherit the land which I swore to their fathers to give them,” and “Be strong and courageous.” Joshua 24:29–30 says that Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died, being one hundred ten years old, and that they buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnathserah.
