COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

26. Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God —registered the engagements of that solemn covenant in the book of sacred history. took a great stone —according to the usage of ancient times to erect stone pillars as monuments of public transactions. set it up there under an oak —or terebinth, in all likelihood, the same as that at the root of which Jacob buried the idols and charms found in his family. that was by the sanctuary of the Lord —either the spot where the ark had stood, or else the place around, so called from that religious meeting, as Jacob named Beth-el the house of God.
