# Now
This word is used here to mark a break in the main story line. Here the narrator tells us why the gates of Jericho are closed and locked up.
# I have delivered Jericho into your hand, its king, and its trained soldiers
Yahweh is telling Joshua that he will certainly do this by saying that he has already done it. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-pastforfuture]])
# into your hand
The word "hand" is a metonym for the control that the hand exercises. AT: "so that you can control it" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
