Joshua24:25

25 So Joshua made a covenant with the people that day, and set them a statute, and an ordinance in Shechem.

Either 1. He set, or propounded, or declared unto them the Statute and Ordinance, i. e. the summ of the Statutes and Ordinances of God which their Covenant obliged them to. Or 2. He set or established it, to wit, that Covenant with them, i. e. the People, for a Statute or an Ordinance, to bind themselves and their Posterity unto God for ever as a Statute and Ordinance of God doth.
