Contextual Overview
15 But if you don't want to serve the Lord , you must choose for yourselves today whom you will serve. You may serve the gods that your ancestors worshiped when they lived on the other side of the Euphrates River, or you may serve the gods of the Amorites who lived in this land. As for me and my family, we will serve the Lord ." 16 Then the people answered, "We will never stop following the Lord to serve other gods! 17 It was the Lord our God who brought our ancestors out of Egypt. We were slaves in that land, but the Lord did great things for us there. He brought us out and protected us while we traveled through other lands. 18 Then he forced out all the people living in these lands, even the Amorites. So we will serve the Lord , because he is our God." 19 Then Joshua said, "You are not able to serve the Lord , because he is a holy God and a jealous God. If you turn against him and sin, he will not forgive you. 20 If you leave the Lord and serve other gods, he will send you great trouble. The Lord may have been good to you, but if you turn against him, he will destroy you." 21 But the people said to Joshua, "No! We will serve the Lord ." 22 Then Joshua said, "You are your own witnesses that you have chosen to serve the Lord ." The people said, "Yes, we are." 23 Then Joshua said, "Now throw away the gods that you have. Love the Lord , the God of Israel, with all your heart." 24 Then the people said to Joshua, "We will serve the Lord our God, and we will obey him."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
So Joshua let the people depart, every man unto his inheritance. Dismissed them, and took his final leave and farewell of them, dying soon after; upon which they returned to the possessions and inheritances assigned by lot to the several tribes, of which they were the heads and princes.
