‏ Joshua 6:4-16

trumpets of rams' The words shopheroth hyyovelim, should rather be rendered jubilee, trumpets, i.e., such as were used on the jubilee, which were probably made of horn or silver. For the entrance of the Israelites into Canaan was indeed a jubilee to them (see note on Lev 25:11). Instead of the dreadful trumpet of war, they were ordered to sound the trumpet of joy, as already conquerors. Lev 25:9; Num 10:1-10; Judg 7:7-8, Judg 7:15-22; 2Chr 13:12, 2Chr 20:17, 2Chr 20:19, 2Chr 20:21; Isa 27:13; Zech 4:6

and the wall The words wenaphelah chomath hair tachteyha, are literally, "and the wall of the city shall fall down under itself;" which appears simply to mean, that the wall shall fall down from its very foundation; which was probably the case in every part, though large breaches in different places might have been amply sufficient first to admit the armed men, after whom the host might enter to destroy the city. There is no ground for the supposition that the walls sunk into the earth. Isa 25:12, Isa 30:25; 2Cor 10:4-5; Heb 11:30
