JOSHUA, BOOK OF

What Is the Book of Joshua About?

This book records Israel's conquest of the land of Canaan. The leader of the campaign was Joshua, who captured the land in three military invasions — first the central region, then the south, and finally the north. The document thus depicts the fulfillment of the land promise Jehovah made to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The book covers about thirty years of Israel's history — from the death of Moses to the death of Joshua.
