This site's exposition
so did Moses command Joshua
The chain of command is written out in one verse, from God to Moses to Joshua, and every link is said to have held. He left nothing undone occurs once in the whole King James Bible and it sits here. Joshua 13:1 opens with there remaineth yet very much land to be possessed, spoken to the same man about the same country, and both sentences stand in the same book with neither correcting the other.
