Seven tribes had not taken possession of their territories yet. Joshua accused them of being “slack” (KJV). This is not a positive word. It is used all through the Old Testament to refer to situations where people did not do what they were supposed to do. Joshua gave specific instructions to fix the situation, which they followed. Let us learn that delaying the doing of God’s will is not a good thing—He has given us responsibilities, too. Let us not delay in doing them.
