The Key Word — יְהוֹשֻׁעַ, ye.ho.Shu.a'generated
The name יְהוֹשֻׁעַ (*Yhowshuwa`*) identifies Joshua, the successor of Moses, whose name means 'Jehovah is salvation.' He is a significant leader in the narrative of the Israelites, first mentioned in Exodus and known for leading them into the Promised Land after Moses.
The parsing as a noun proper masculine indicates that Joshua is a specific individual, not a general term. His role as a leader is emphasized here, as he is described as standing before the people, indicating his readiness and presence in guiding them.

Sentence Structuregenerated
The finite verb יָ֣בֹא, he will go, governs the main clause, with several phrases providing context: a noun phrase identifying Joshua, a participial phrase describing his standing, and an imperative phrase encouraging the people. This structure emphasizes the call to action.
The sentence flows by presenting Joshua's identity first, followed by his role and the imperative to encourage him. This order highlights the significance of Joshua's leadership in the transition to the Promised Land.

The choice of παρεστηκώς for הָעֹמֵ֣ד indicates a focus on Joshua's presence and readiness to lead, reinforcing the importance of his role as a leader.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text is supported by the Septuagint, which matches 14 of the 15 words. The Samaritan Pentateuch differs in two words, using יבוא (come) and אחזיק (be strong) instead of the Masoretic readings. The Dead Sea Scrolls contain one word on the leather, with the rest supplied by an editor, showing some variation but generally aligning with the Masoretic Text.
יְהוֹשֻׁ֤עַ בִּן נוּן֙ הָעֹמֵ֣ד לְפָנֶ֔יךָ ה֖וּא יָ֣בֹא שָׁ֑מָּה אֹת֣וֹ חַזֵּ֔ק כִּי־ ה֖וּא יַנְחִלֶ֥נָּה אֶת־ יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
14 of the 15 words are matched. This is the word-by-word correspondence, not the Septuagint's own sentence — its word order and its articles are its own.
יהושׁע בן נון העמד לפניך הוא יבוא שׁמה אתו אחזיק כי הוא ינחלנה את ישׂראל
2 words differ from the Masoretic Text: יבוא (come), אחזיק (be strong)
יהושע [בן] [נון] [העמד] [לפני׳ך] [הוא] [יבא] [שמ׳ה] [את׳ו] [חזק] [כי] [הוא] [ינחל׳נה] [את] [ישראל]
1 word on the leather — 14 supplied entire by an editor.
Four traditions, not one. “On the leather” means the letters physically survive on the scroll, as against letters an editor has supplied to fill a hole in it — a restoration is a scholar’s reading, not a reading of the manuscript. Words in [square brackets] are supplied; the notes count them apart from what survives.

Joshua
Jehovah is his help, or Jehovah the Saviour. The son of Nun, of the tribe of Ephraim, the successor of Moses as the leader of Israel. He is called Jehoshua in Num. 13:16 (A.V.), and Jesus in Acts 7:45 and Heb. 4:8 (R.V., Joshua).
He was born in Egypt, and was probably of the age of Caleb, with whom he is generally associated. He shared in all the events of the Exodus, and held the place of commander of the host of the Israelites at their great battle against the Amalekites in Rephidim (Ex. 17:8-16). He became Moses’ minister or servant, and accompanied him part of the way when he ascended Mount Sinai to receive the two tables (

(1 Chronicles 7:27) (B.C. 1530-1420.) He was nearly forty years old when he shared in the hurried triumph of the exodus. He is mentioned first in connection with the fight against Amalek at Rephidim, when he was chosen by Moses to lead the Israelites. (Exodus 17:9) Soon afterward he was one of the twelve chiefs who were sent, (Numbers 13:17) to explore the land of Canaan, and one of the two, ch. (Numbers 14:6) who gave an encouraging report of their journey. Moses, shortly before his death, was directed, (

Both the names, Joshua and Jesus, signify savior, deliverer. See JESUS. Joshua led Israel over the Jordan, and took possession of the promised land; he conquered the Canaanites, and then distributed the country among the tribes. He is first mentioned as the leader of Israel against the Amalekites at Rephidim,

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.
I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you. 1 Corinthians 11:1.
For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts. Joshua 11:1.
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed.

The whole disposing thereof is of the Lord. Proverbs 16:1.
Go, inquire of the Lord for me. 2 Chronicles 34:2.
That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…
נוּן (Nuwn) refers to the father of Joshua, a significant figure from the tribe of Ephraim. The name is linked to the concept of perpetuity and is noted in Exodus 33:11.
