Excerpt from Posthumous Works of the Rev. Thomas Chalmers, Vol. 2: Daily Scripture Readings
J opens III. LIL - There seems another purpose to be intimated here in the leaving of so many nations, and that is, not merely for the moral and spiritual, but for the military discipline of the Israelites; or, in other words, that they may be provided with a school of war as well as a school of virtue. There is an obscurity in verse 2; but this seems clear, that the nations were left not merely for the design which had been already mentioned, but also to teach the generations of the children war, in order that they more especially who before knew nothing thereof might know the method of carrying it on. And they would further learn the difference between having God for a helper and having Him for an adversary when they went to battle with their foes. We further see, inverse 4, the mighty importance ascribed by God in His methods of government to the manifestation of character. We have here recorded their distinct and perhaps earliest departure from God after their settlement in Canaan and now begin the alterna tions of the Jewish history, which strikingly evince the special Theocracy under which their nation was placed It forms a sort of connecting link between the books of Joshua and Judges, when told that the first of these Judges was Othniel, the nephew of Caleb.
