'Nevi'im (JPSA) 06: Joshua' Summary
The Book of Joshua begins with the death of Moses and the appointment of Joshua as his successor. Under Joshua's guidance, the Israelites cross the Jordan River and embark on a series of military conquests against the Canaanite inhabitants of the Promised Land. Their victories, often attributed to God's intervention, allow them to claim the land as their own. The book then details the complex process of dividing the land amongst the twelve tribes. The narrative culminates with Joshua's address to the Israelites, emphasizing the importance of remaining faithful to God's covenant and the consequences of disobedience. The book concludes with the account of Joshua's death and burial, leaving the Israelites to navigate their new land and their future as a nation.Book Details
