Joshua 18: How Long Will You Wait?

Last updated on: October 11, 2012 at 11:24 am   By Dillon Burroughs

 So Joshua said to the Israelites: “How long will you wait before you begin to take possession of the land that the Lord, the God of your ancestors, has given you?” -Joshua 18:3 Joshua was a man of action. When war had ended, the next step was division of the land. By chapter 18, seven tribes still lacked their allotted portion. In his words, “How long will you wait…?” He was ready to get the job done. Two extremes often... Read more

Joshua 17: Treating Women with Dignity

Last updated on: October 10, 2012 at 10:46 am   By Dillon Burroughs

3 Now Zelophehad son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Makir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons but only daughters, whose names were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah and Tirzah. 4 They went to Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the leaders and said, “The Lord commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our relatives.” So Joshua gave them an inheritance along with the brothers of their father, according to the Lord’s command. 5 Manasseh’s share consisted... Read more

Joshua 16: A Double Blessing

Last updated on: October 9, 2012 at 12:43 pm   By Dillon Burroughs

“So Manasseh and Ephraim, the descendants of Joseph, received their inheritance.” -Joshua 16:4 As Joshua divided the land for each tribe of Israel, chapter 16 highlights an unusual honor. Joseph, the son of Jacob, had two sons who each received their own portion. Why this double blessing? The history of this blessing harkens back to Joseph’s life 400 years earlier. At the age 0f seventeen, his jealous brothers sold him to traders and told their dad he was eaten by... Read more

Last updated on: October 5, 2012 at 1:01 pm   By Dillon Burroughs

“In accordance with the Lord’s command to him, Joshua gave to Caleb son of Jephunneh a portion in Judah—Kiriath Arba, that is, Hebron.” -Joshua 15:13 Only two men over the age of twenty when they left Egypt would live to see the promised land. Both are mentioned in the same verse in Joshua 15:13. Joshua and Caleb were the two who trusted in God after the report of overpowering enemies years earlier. Years later, these two men would live to... Read more

So here I am today, eighty-five years old! 11 I am still as strong today as the day Moses sent me out; I’m just as vigorous to go out to battle now as I was then. 12 Now give me this hill country that the Lord promised me that day.

Last updated on: October 4, 2012 at 10:34 am   By Dillon Burroughs

“But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave no inheritance; the Lord God of Israel is their inheritance, just as he said to them.” -Joshua 13:33 Some would say the tribe of Levi got a bad deal. After 40 years in the wilderness, they were the one tribe not given a land of inheritance for themselves. Why not? Verse 33 notes, “But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave no inheritance; the Lord God of Israel is their inheritance, just... Read more

He may move at a pace we would not prefer, but he does finish what he begins. When Israel finished its battles against its enemies, they were able to move in and develop their new communities.

Then the land had rest from war.” -Joshua 11:23 People who read the Old Testament often ask why there is so much talk about war and death. However, Joshua 11 highlights one important aspect of war in the Bible–God does not desire war to last, but to end. God had a plan to... Read more

The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day. 14 There has never... Read more

The Gibeonites realized their weakness to Israel’s army and plotted to trick Israel. How? By acting as if they were a nation from a faraway land that served no threat... Read more
