 * Joshua.
   Joshua seems to have been not only the general but the
   standard-bearer of the army, (ver. 18,) and continued in this
   employment, by holding up or extending his spear, during the
   whole of the battle; and did not slacken from the pursuit till
   the forces of Ai were utterly discomfited.  Some commentators,
   however, understand this action in a figurative sense, like
   the holding up of Moses' hands, as if it implied that Joshua
   continued in prayer for the success of his troops, nor ceased
   till the armies of Ai were annihilated, and the city taken and
   destroyed.

 * drew not.
