Commentary on Joshua 24:25

Theological / Devotional

Statute. Derived from a word signifying “to cut,” hence the meaning, “what is cut in,” or, “what is graven.” The word for “ordinance” is more generally translated “judgment.” The engraving may have been on the rock that Joshua set up for a memorial.
