Holy Scripture

Joshua 9:6

A church father on this verse
“"In my father's house are many mansions," says the Word of God. Yet even the resurrection of the dead will not exhibit an equal glory of those rising again, for "there is one flesh of birds, another of cattle, and even another of fish. There are both heavenly bodies and earthly bodies; but the glory of heavenly things…”
Origen of Alexandria, 3th c. — HOMILIES ON JOSHUA 10.1

In context

4And they also wrought craftily, and they went and made provision and prepared themselves; and having taken old sacks on their shoulders, and old and rent and patched bottles of wine,

5and the upper part of their shoes and their sandals old and clouted on their feet, and their garments old upon them—and the bread of their provision was dry and moldy and corrupt.

— Joshua 9:6 —

7And the children of Israel said to the Horite, Peradventure thou dwellest amongst us; and how should I make a covenant with thee?

8And they said to Joshua, We are thy servants: and Joshua said to them, Whence are ye, and whence have ye come?
