Joshua
This week we go back to the Old Testament and pick up with the book of Joshua. Joshua, whose name means "Yahweh is Salvation" is the successor of Moses and actually leads to the Israelites across the Jordan into the promised land. The famous story of the "Walls of Jericho".
The book of Joshua is considered to be the first of the Historical Books. It can be broken into the following logical divisions. The Conquest of Canaan (Jos 1:1-12:24), Division of the Land (Jos 13:1-21:45), and the Return of the Transjordan Tribes and Joshua's Farewell (Jos 22:1-24:33).
