So let's dive in:
First we will begin by reading Joshua chapter 1. Read through the chapter and look for the main character and place.
Did you notice who our main character is? It's Joshua. I want you to spend some time finding out who Joshua is, where has he been, what role has he had in the Bible until now? Look up the following verses and write down what you learn about Joshua.
- Exodus 17:8-16
- Exodus 24:12-13
- Numbers 11:28
- Numbers 13:1-16, 25-14:12
- Numbers 14:26-38
- Numbers 27:15-23
- Numbers 32:11-13
- Numbers 34:16-17
- Deuteronomy 1:34-39
- Deuteronomy 3:18-29
- Deuteronomy 31:1-8,14-23
- Deuteronomy 34:5-9
The main place in the book of Joshua is the land. God gave the people many instructions about life in the land. As you look up the following verses write down specific answers about what you learn about:
- the boundaries and those inhabiting the land before Israel.
- who is to possess the land and for how long. Watch for references to descendants.
- any conditions with respect to possessing or living in the land
- why the former occupants are being evicted and judged
- God’s role in the occupation of the land
Below are the verses:
- Genesis 12:1-7
- Genesis 13:12-18
- Genesis 15:7-21
- Genesis 17:1-8
- Genesis 26:1-5
- Genesis 28:1-4, 13-16
- Exodus 6:1, 8
- Exodus 23:20-33
- Leviticus 18:1-3, 24-30—Leviticus 18 gives instructions to Israel of what behaviors would be unacceptable in the land. Does verse 27 give you insight as to why the former inhabitants are being evicted/judged?
- Leviticus 20:22-24
- Leviticus 25:1-23
- Leviticus 26:1-9
- Numbers 33:40, 50-56
- Numbers 34:1-15
- Deuteronomy 7:1-6, 16-26
- Deuteronomy 11:8-32
- Deuteronomy 32:8-9
- Deuteronomy 34:1-4
