Ancient tradition has it that the book was written by Joshua himself, completed after his death by Eleazar the high priest and his son Phinehas.

Joshua contains vivid material, written in the first person, suggesting that the author was an eyewitness.

How many kingdoms did Joshua successfully captured in the bible?

I think it was about 15 or 16! It is unclear how many kingdoms Joshua conquered, but it is known that he defeated 31 kings. (This could be greater than the number of kingdoms he acquired if he defeated kings who were allies of kings that he desired land from.)

Which book of the Bible talks about love the most?

It could be arguable, but IMO there is no other writing/book in the Bible that expounds upon the depth of God's love as does the Gospel of John. Concerning a human 'love' story, the unique book, 'The Song of Solomon' is most likely the best candidate. In an overall sense though, the entire Bible reflects God's love for all mankind.


What did Joshua do in The Bible?

Joshua was a spy for Israel. He was an assistant to Moses. After the death of Moses, Joshua became the leader of the Israelites.Answer:Joshua had been Moses' right-hand man since his youth (Numbers 11:28), and his chief disciple, who was constantly found in the tent of Torah where Moses taught (Exodus 33:11), so as not to ever miss a single word of Moses' teaching. He could be trusted to reach correct decisions (Numbers ch.13-14); and was successful in battle too (Exodus ch.17). As Moses approached the time when he would have to hand over the helm of leadership, Joshua turned out to be the best choice to carry on, and God named him as Moses' successor (Numbers ch.27).

How many men named Jesus in Jewish history?

The name Jesus is the Greek form of 'Joshua', but the Greek form is only used in the Bible when referring to Jesus Christ. Joshua is one of the most common names in the entire Bible, but always as a great leader or high priest. Of course, we have Joshua, son of Nun, who is reported to have conquered the Canaanites. There were also Joshua the Bet-Shemite and Joshua, governor of the city of Jericho (2 Kings chapter 23). Later, Zechariah had apocalyptic visions, in which Joshua the high priest had been found guilty of iniquity, but the Lord needed Joshua and was willing to offer him inducements and honour. Interestlingly, the Bible says that the high priest Joshua, son of Jozadak or Josedec (Joseph), assisted Zorobabel in rebuilding the Temple following the Return from Exile of the Jews. In the list of Israelites that returned from the Babylonian Exile, Ezra also records that a Joshua was head of the priestly family of Phahath Moab, while another was head of the priestly family of Idaia, or Jedaia. This is an improbably high proportion of heads of priestly families who were called Joshua, yet no other person listed, not even anyone's father, was called Joshua. Either the name Joshua was quite common at the time of the Return, or it was not, and there could be statistical evidence in the Bible that the name Joshua (Jesus) already had important religious associations.

Was Nun a man or woman?

A:In ancient times, before the use of surnames, a man was commonly referred to by his own name, then "son of [his father's name]". Thus we could expect that Nun, the father of "Joshua son of Nun" was a man. A complication of this is that scholars say that there never was a military conquest of Canaan as described in the Bible and therefore no military leader called Joshua; moreover there is substantial evidence in the Bible itself that Joshua was worshipped by the Hebrews of archaic times as their sun god, so we could look for a god as Joshua's father. The Egyptian primordal god, and ancestor of all the gods, was called Nun. Thus it is possible that the god Nun entered archaic Hebrew belief from Egypt, and that he was neither man nor woman, but a god.

The same way we use it in our language and writing. There could be this but only IF that happens. A Bible concordance is a great book that allows you to look up all verses that contain a certain word. So if you get one you can look up "it".
