What instrument did the priest sound to cause the destruction of Jericho?
The people of Israel were led to Jericho under the leadership of Joshua. The instruments blown by the seven priests were trumpets.
What were two likely results of the strange marches around Jericho by Israel for seven days?
A:This is a question that takes us outside biblical tradition into the worlds of science psychology and history. The science of archaeology tells us that Jericho was abandoned around 1550 BCE, so we can say that the biblical Israelite attack is not historical. However, legends are often based on some element of truth, and so it seems to be with the story of Joshua's attack on Jericho, in which he ordered the Israelites to march around the walls of Jericho for seven days. This is apparently based on a real event, when an invading army marched around the walls of the city of Megiddo, day after day. At first, the defenders followed around on the wall, waiting for the attack to commence. When no attack took place, they simply stopped following the opposing forces around the walls. At this point, the invaders attacked, meeting little organised resistance. This real event shows the likely result of the strange marches.
How many times did the Israelites march around the city of Jericho before it fell?
13--Once each day for 6 days and 7 times on the 7th day. Joshua 6:3-4 "March around the city once with all the armed men. Do this for six days. Have seven priests carry trumpets of rams' horns in front of the ark. On the seventh day, march around the city seven times, with the priests blowing the trumpets."
How many days did Israel march around Jericho?
A:The Book of Joshua (chapter 6) tells of the Israelites marching around the walls of Jericho seven times, but does not tell us the length of each march or how long it took. We therefore can not say from a biblical perspective how long the march was. Archaeologists tell us that the city of Jericho was finally abandoned after an earthquake damamged the walls approximately 1550 BCE, and that there was only a small, unwalled village at the site when the Bible says the Israelites arrived. So, from a historical perspective the march did not take place. Over 80 per cent of scholars are reported to believe there was no military conquest of Canaan as described in the Bible.
What was the distance around the walls of Jericho?

What was the reason for the Israelites to march around Jericho 7 times?
Basically, because God told them to! I am certain that some would have said that it sounded a stupid thing to do and what could it do, but remember that the Israelites had seen miracle after miracle, the last one being the drying up of the impassable flooded Jordan River so they could cross over. It was an act of faith and obedience and showed the power of God.
Is chris Jericho doink the clown?
He was once. Doink was played by a whole host of wrestlers. The longest serving Doink was Matt Osborne ('92-'94), but after that the character became more of a gimmick than a character. Jericho dressed as Doink only once, to ambush William Regal on March 26th 2001. Due to face Regal at Wrestlemania X-Seven on April 1st (Jericho contested that match in his standard ring attire), the (kayfabe) ambush pain off as Jericho won the match, contested for the Intercontinental Championship.
