Commentary on Judges 2:8

Theological / Devotional

Hundred and ten years. The record does not state how long Joshua lived after the assembly at Shechem. His death probably occurred soon thereafter, for he was “old and stricken in age” (Joshua 23:1, 2) when he called this meeting of the heads and representatives of the tribes. The occasion for calling the assembly was probably his realization that death was near. After telling of the breakup of the gathering, the narrator reports that Joshua died (Joshua 24:29), thus indicating he lived but a short time thereafter.
