Did Joshua do wrong

Answer 1

A:If Joshua really conquered the land of the Canaanites, as described in The Bible, he most certainly did wrong. No one could ever justify the evil he perpetrated, committing acts of genocide and crimes against humanity.

However, the consensus of historians and scholars is that the biblical conquest of Canaan never really happened. It is now understood that the Israelites were actually descended from Canaanites, not invaders who had fled from Egypt. Long after they had forgotten their real origins, the people developed their traditions of a glorious past, so different from the reality of their own time.
