Best Answer

If you mean the book of Joshua, the books that come before that would be Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. If you mean Joshua (as in the person), I do know that he is chosen to succeed Moses in Deuteronomy 31, but I don't know if he is mentioned anywhere before that. If you're still curious, looking through The Bible can help give you some answers. Hope that I answered your question! May God bless and keep you!
