| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
| The servant of the Lord - This is a title especially given to Moses Deu 34:5; Jos 1:1. In later books, the phrase "the servant of God" is used Ch1 6:49; Neh 10:29; Dan 9:11; Rev 15:3. It is applied to Joshua only here and in Jos 24:29. It is spoken of David (Ps. 18, title), and generally of the prophets; and, like the analogous phrase, "man of God," is transferred by Paul to the ministers of Christ under the New Testament Ti2 2:24; Jam 1:1. |
