In how many ways does the Book of Joshua establish parallels between the life of Moses and the Joshua narratives?

AnswerThere are so many parallels between the story of Moses and that of Joshua, that some say that the Joshua narrative is almost a retelling of the Moses story. Joshua 3:7, "And the LORD said unto Joshua, This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee."Two example of these parallels:Just as Moses parted the Red Sea, so Joshua parted the Jordan River. Just as Moses sent two spies, Joshua and Caleb, to the Promised Land, so Joshua sent two spies to Jericho. There is strong evidence that Joshua was originally a sun-god, before being depicted as a founder of Israel. Some say, from analysing the biblical evidence, that Moses was also originally a sun-god for the very early Hebrew people.
