No man will be able to stand before you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not fail you nor forsake you.
⛓ Read Joshua 1 forward — the whole chapter and its afterlife →Where this passage surfaces again, sorted by the strength of the link. Each kind of reuse — formal quotation, deliberate allusion, faint echo, figural pattern — carries its own mark. Follow any reference to read it in place.
Echo1
A fainter, low-volume reuse, carried by recurrence or thematic coherence.
'I will not leave you or forsake you,' God's commissioning promise to Joshua, contributes to the OT not-forsake topos standing behind 'I will not leave you orphans.' Recurrence of this formula (Deut/Josh) raises its cumulative Volume slightly, but the link to 14:18 remains thematic; low and contested.
Low confidence◇ Figural1
A typological pattern re-read in a later text — no verbal quotation, high figural coherence.
'As I was with Moses, so I will be with you... I will not leave you nor forsake you' is the divine charge to Joshua at the threshold of conquest. Jesus' perpetual-presence promise to disciples advancing into all nations echoes this commissioning template.
