The battle at Jerico was regarding a land of promise through Moses to Joshua. A land flowing with milk and honey meaning. A place to increase as far as family and wealth, but Joshua had to go in and posess the land first.
One Answer:
Jericho was actually abandoned at the time Joshua was supposed to have conquered it. It is widely believed by many highly educated people (with degrees after their names) that the battle never actually took place. Archeologists who were actually there, actually digging have concluded that the battle did not occur when The Bible claims it did. Moreover, it can be seen as a very good thing that it did not happen. The Jericho story is many times washed down when it is told or read. But when reading the Bible account one finds at the end God has every living thing murdered, including animals and even, yes, children. Thankfully it is most likely that passersby saw a crumbled city and invented a story about it. Through decades of retelling it grew into the story found in the Biblical canon.
Another:
Yes, according to the Bible, Joshua fought at Jericho(Joshua 6:2-26)
In archaic English, "Fit" is the past participle of "fight". So, it is kind of like saying: "Joshua Fought The Battle of Jericho."
It means: Joshua fought in the battle of Jericho.
