Exegesis
The relative clause asher-halakh yisrael bammidbar {אֲשֶׁר־הָלַךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל בַּמִּדְבָּר | ʾăšer-hālak yiśrāʾēl bammidbār} situates that speech during Israel’s wilderness movement, linking the promise to a defining communal period.
In context — Joshua 14:10
And now, behold, the LORD has kept me alive, just as He spoke, these forty-five years since then the LORD spoke this word to Moses, when Israel walked in the wilderness; and now, behold, I am today eighty-five years old.
