The Book ofJoshua
Old Testament · Book 6 of 66 · 24 chapters · 658 verses
Joshua is the book of possessed promises. After Moses' death, Joshua leads Israel across the Jordan, around Jericho's walls, and into the inheritance God swore to Abraham. It is a manual for courage — God's command to be strong and courageous frames the whole conquest.
