TSNTyndale Study Notes:

23:12-16 Apostasy—turning away from the true God—is fatal.
• Because God is holy, Joshua could speak with optimism regarding God’s promises and the good land into which God had brought them. God will not change his holy character even if his people change. The rebellion of God’s people cannot damage his holiness, but rebellion will destroy those who rebel.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

וַ⁠עֲבַדְתֶּם֙ אֱלֹהִ֣ים אֲחֵרִ֔ים וְ⁠הִשְׁתַּחֲוִיתֶ֖ם לָ⁠הֶ֑ם

and,serve ʼₑlhīmv other and,bow_down to/for=them

These two phrases mean basically the same thing. The second describes how the people “worship other gods.”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וְ⁠חָרָ֤ה אַף־יְהוָה֙ בָּ⁠כֶ֔ם

and,burn also/though YHWH in/on/at/with,you_all

“Kindled” here is a metaphor for the beginning of Yahweh’s anger, like a fire is “kindled” or started with “kindling” or very easy to start burning like dried grass or small twigs. Alternate translation: “Yahweh will begin to be angry with you”
