and it hath been, in the prolongation of the horn of the jubilee, in your hearing the voice of the trumpet, all the people shout--a great shout, and the wall of the city hath fallen under it, and the people have gone up, each over-against him.'
Joshua 6:3 and ye have compassed the city--all the men of battle--going round the city once; thus thou dost six days;
Joshua 6:4 and seven priests do bear seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark, and on the seventh day ye compass the city seven times, and the priests blow with the trumpets,
Joshua 6:5 and it hath been, in the prolongation of the horn of the jubilee, in your hearing the voice of the trumpet, all the people shout--a great shout, and the wall of the city hath fallen under it, and the people have gone up, each over-against him.'
Joshua 6:6 And Joshua son of Nun calleth unto the priests, and saith unto them, `Bear ye the ark of the covenant, and seven priests do bear seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark of Jehovah;'
Joshua 6:7 and He said unto the people, `Pass over, and compass the city, and he who is armed doth pass over before the ark of Jehovah.'
The verse centers on "hath", "been", "prolongation", "horn", "jubilee", "hearing", "voice", and "trumpet". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "hath" and "been", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.
The nearby context moves from verse 4's "and seven priests do bear seven trumpets..." into verse 6's "And Joshua son of Nun calleth unto...", so "hath" and "been" belong inside that flow. In Joshua context, the local focus is covenant, worship, and faithfulness.
A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "hath" and "been" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
