SEV Biblia, Chapter 6:8

Y así que Josué hubo hablado al pueblo, los siete sacerdotes, llevando las siete trompetas de cuernos de carneros, pasaron delante del arca del SEÑOR, y tocaron las trompetas; y el arca del pacto del SEÑOR los seguía.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 8. And it came to pass, when Joshua had spoken to the people , etc.] Both armed and unarmed; had finished the orders and directions he gave them before mentioned: that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams’ horns passed on before the Lord ; in his sight, and by his direction, and at his command given by Joshua, and before the ark, the symbol of his presence: and blew with the trumpets ; a short blast as they went along; this they did on each of the six days: and the ark of the covenant of the Lord followed them ; being borne by priests, ( Joshua 6:6).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 6-16 - Wherever the ark went, the people attended it. God's ministers, by the trumpet of the everlasting gospel, which proclaims liberty and victory must encourage the followers of Christ in their spiritual warfare. A promised deliverances must be expected in God's way, so they must be expected in his time. At last the people were to shout: they did so and the walls fell. This was a shout of faith; they believed the wall of Jericho would fall. It was a shout of prayer; they cry to Heaven for help, and help came.
