  2. Introduction The Bible contains stories of the greatest EVILS . . . . . betrayals, revenge, deception The ultimate Prince of Deception - Satan The Bible contains stories of the greatest GOOD . . . . . miracles, achievements, courage The greatest sacrifice for you and me The crucifixion & resurrection Of Jesus Christ our Lord!

  3. The Pentateuch We now have a basic understanding of the first 5 books of the bible Genesis: The Beginnings Exodus: In the Wilderness Leviticus: Worship of God Numbers: In the Wilderness - BeMidbar Deuteronomy: Repetition of law for 2nd generation Now: 12 Historical Books

  4. 12 Historical Books Joshua: Moses Replacement – Canaan Judges – 300 years of history Ruth – understand Ruth before Revelation 1 Samuel – birth of the kingdom 2 Samuel – reign of King David 1 Kings – David’s kingdom divided, Solomon dies 2 Kings – history of the divided kingdom 1 & 2 Chronicles – reign of David & southern kingdom Ezra – return from Babylonian captivity Nehemiah – rebuilding Jerusalem Esther – escape from Persian Empire

  5. Joshua Jehovah savior Author: Joshua. 14th Century BC Book of military conquests Ch 1 – 5: Entering Promised Lane Ch 6 – 12: Battle at Canaan Ch 13 – 24: Victory of Faith

  6. Joshua, son of Nun, replaced Moses Joshua in command: BE STRONG & COURAGEOUS - Moses, God, David, Jesus to His Disciples, Paul Enter miraculously by crossing “dry” Jordan River – by faith (water receded when priest put feet in). Built 2 monuments, 12 stones each (gospel of John 1500 yrs later) Joshua sends spies to investigate land – Rahab, a prostitute protected spies; Rahab & family saved.

  7. Jericho – 7 Years of Battles March around the city 1x a day for 6 days March around the city 7x the 7th day Blow trumpets and shout; walls will fall Take no loot. Achan smuggled goods, family stoned Smuggling=battle loss at Ai. Won after Achan stoned God means what He says and says what He means!

  8. The Longest Day Gibeonites heard destruction at Jericho and Ai Deceived Joshua/Israel joining them – defeated - meteor shower & lengthening the day Ancient calendars: 360-day years til 701BC Romans added 5 ¼ days; Jews added whole month WHY? Mars? China? p69

  9. End of 7 Years of Battles Land taken & divided among 12 Tribes by casting lots Levites (priests) - no land. God was their inheritance - 6 of 48 cities deemed “City of Refuge” – Rap Jail? Accidental Murder = Manslaughter. Safe as long as you stayed within city limits or until priest died. Jesus is our City of Refuge, High Priest, our Protector!
