Joshua 20:1-22:34 (Episode 196) Dec 27, 2019

Show notes

The cities of refuge are set up and land is allotted to the tribe of Levi. God doesn't let His promises "fall" but fulfills them all for everyone. How does God having one plan for both Jews and Gentiles shape our eschatology? And why does the building of an altar almost start a civil war? Chad and Daniel discuss all of this. Have a listen!

Joshua 16:1-19:51 (Episode 195) Dec 20, 2019

Show notes

People remain in the land and Israel uses them as forced labor. How did it happen and is this what God wanted? Certain tribes want more land and Joshua recommends a solution they are not completely comfortable with. We are introduced to a place called Shiloh and the word "subdue" reappears. Chad and Daniel discuss all of this. Have a listen!

Joshua 14:1-15:63 (Episode 194) Dec 13, 2019

Show notes

There is a lot about Caleb in this episode. He is older but no less ready to take the land God has promised them. A strange promise is made involving marriage. Why does Caleb use the word "perhaps"? In God what has become of death? Chad and Daniel discuss all of this. Have a listen!

Joshua 12:1-13:33 (Episode 193) Dec 06, 2019

Show notes

Chad and Daniel get from Joshua to Revelation and spend a lot of this episode talking about Armageddon and the return of Christ. Why does God leave things for Israel (and the church) to struggle against? The Promised Land is no new Eden, but a second Adam will come from it. All this is discussed. Have a listen!

Joshua 11:6-23 (Episode 192) Nov 29, 2019

Show notes

As kingdoms rise up against Joshua, we hear some language we've heard before concerning horses, chariots, and sand on the seashore. Why is God always stacking the odds against Israel? Were any of the cities in Canaan wanting to make peace? Is Israel the "good guys" and everyone else the "bad guys" in these accounts? Chad and Daniel discuss all of this. Have a listen!

Joshua 10:1-21 (Episode 190) Nov 15, 2019

Show notes

Five kings rise up against Gibeon and Israel rises to their defense. God gets all the credit for what happens in the battle and we are pointed back to the plagues of Egypt. Joshua asks the sun to stand still and it remains day until the battle is won. How are we to understand Joshua's request and what does it mean that "no man moved his tongue against Israel."? Chad and Daniel discuss all of this. Have a listen!
