The Background
In this lesson series we will be looking at the book of Joshua. Before looking at Joshua it is important that we first establish some background.
- Who had led the Israelites out of Egypt and during their time in the wilderness?
- Why was Moses prevented from entering the promised land (Numbers 20:1-13)?
- What event took place in Deuteronomy 34:1-8?
- Who succeeded Moses as the new leader of the Israelites (Deuteronomy 34:9-12)?
Thinking
