Contextual Overview

¹ And he shewed me, Joshua the high priest, standing before the messenger of Yahweh, - and, the Accuser, standing at his right hand, to accuse him. ² Then said Yahweh unto the Accuser, Yahweh rebuke thee, O Accuser, Yea Yahweh rebuke thee, he who is choosing Jerusalem, - Is not, this, a brand snatched out of the fire? ³ Now, Joshua, was clothed with filthy garments, - though standing before the messenger. ⁴ Then responded he and spake unto those who were standing before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from off him; and he said unto him, See! I have caused to pass from off thee, thine iniquity, And will cause thee to be clothed in robes of state. ⁵ Then said I, Let them put a clean turban upon his head, - So they put the clean turban upon his head, and clothed him with garments, and, the messenger of Yahweh, was standing up. ⁶ So then the messenger of Yahweh did solemnly affirm unto Joshua, saying: ⁷ Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, If, in my ways, thou wilt walk, and if, of my charge, thou wilt keep charge, Then, even thou, shalt govern my house, Moreover also, thou shalt have charge of my courts, - and I will give thee free access among these who stand by.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the Angel of the Lord protested unto Joshua, saying. He not only gave his word, but annexed his oath; he called as it were heaven and earth to witness; and this he did to confirm the faith of Joshua in the promises he was about to make, as well as in the blessings of grace bestowed upon him; as the pardon of his sins, the justification of his person, and acceptance with God.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And the angel of the Lord protested - Solemnly (etymologically, called God to witness) as in, “Did I not make thee swear by the Lord and protested unto thee” 1 Kings 2:42, laying it as an obligation upon him. The charge is given to Joshua, and in him to all successive high priests, while Israel should continue to be God’s people, as the condition of their acceptance.
