| Summary |
"The World English Bible (WEB): Joshua" by Anonymous is a religious text written in ancient times, likely during the first millennium BC. This portion of the Bible narrates the events following the death of Moses, focusing on the leadership of Joshua as he guides the Israelites into the Promised Land. The text addresses themes of faith, obedience, and divine guidance as it records Joshua's instructions, battles, and interactions with various people, including the notable character Rahab. At the start of "Joshua," the narrative introduces the transition of leadership from Moses to Joshua, as God commands Joshua to lead Israel across the Jordan River into Canaan. The opening details Joshua's encouragement to the Israelites to be strong and faithful, along with the plan to send spies to Jericho, culminating in the encounter with Rahab, who protects the spies from capture. This portion sets a dramatic stage for the unfolding events as the Israelites prepare to take possession of their promised land, establishing the foundational events that shape the nation of Israel.
