Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(2) Next unto him.--At his hand, the customary phrase throughout the chapter, indicating the order of the building, which, however, involves some difficulty towards the close. The phrase, as first used, does honour to the high priest, who must be supposed to have presided only over the religious ceremonial.The men of Jericho.--At the point, it will be observed, opposite their own city.
