et non revertetur, priusquam ad vesperam lavetur aqua : et post solis occasum regredietur in castra.
hoc tantum diligentissime praecavete, ut diligatis Dominum Deum vestrum.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Take good heed therefore unto yourselves,.... To be upon their guard, and to be watchful, were very necessary to them, that they might not be ensnared by the Canaanites, and drawn aside by them into idolatry, and so apostatize from the Lord and his worship, since their temptations would be many:
that ye love the Lord your God; which would the most strongly influence and engage them to serve and worship the Lord, and obey his commands, and be the best preservative against idolatry and false worship.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Joshua 23:11. Take good heed - unto yourselves that ye love the Lord — לנפשתיכם lenaphshotheychem, Take heed TO YOUR SOULS, literally; but נפש nephesh and [Arabic] nefs, both in Hebrew and Arabic, signify the whole self, as well as soul and life; both soul and body must be joined in this work, for it is written, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, soul, mind, and strength.
