Be strong and courageous, for you shall cause this people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give them.
One promise God gave to Joshua was that He would be with him wherever he goes and that He would not leave nor forsake him.
Judaism. It is referred to as the Covenant with Abraham.
John 3:16 in the Bible states: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." This verse is often quoted to emphasize God's love for humanity and the promise of eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ.
One of the moral issues Joshua faced in the Bible was the decision of whether to fulfill God's command to destroy the inhabitants of the Promised Land, including women and children. Additionally, he had to navigate issues of leadership, justice, and faithfulness to God while leading the Israelites into battle and settling them in the land.
Judaism teaches that God promised to bless Abraham's descendants if they worshiped the one true God. This promise is found in the Hebrew Bible, particularly in the book of Genesis.
Joshua was a friend of Moses, and was one of the spies sent into the Promised Land. He has his sidekick, Caleb, were the only two who said that with God's help that they could take the land that had been promised to them. God was so upset with the Israelites' lack of faith in Him, that He caused the Israelites to wander for forty years in the wilderness, until the only people who had left Egypt and were still alive were Moses, Joshua and Caleb. Moses went up to the mountain to see the land and died there, leaving Joshua to lead the Israelites in. Faith and loyalty were his strengths.
In Joshua 1:1-9 God encouraged Joshua. God spoke directly to Joshua encouraging him to enter the promise land with the people of Israel. The words that God used were - "I will give you every place where you set your foot", "No one will be able to stand up against you", "As I was with Moses so I will be with you", "Be strong and courageous because you will lead these people to inerit the land I swore to their forefathers to give them". There were more encouraging words that God used to speak to Joshua so that he would have courage. The question I ask is why did God use these words? God chose His words carefully before speaking to Joshua. God would only use such words if He knew that Joshua needed it. Maybe Joshua was not sure of the task ahead? But the bible shows us that God encouraged Joshua. It is amazing how much God knows us and understands us. God knew what was going through the mind of Joshua. So God encouraged him. If there was anywhere that Joshua must have found courage it was in Joshua chapter 1 when God encouraged him. In verse 10 after God had encoraged Joshua - the bible tells us that Joshua got up and told the leaders of Israel to get ready for in three days time they would cross the Jordan river and take possession of the promised land. After God had encouraged Joshua - Joshua had the courage to cross over and take possession of the promise land. God gave Joshua courage.
One was to not destroy the world with a flood. In Joshua 1:5 it also says " I will not fail thee or forsake thee."
promise
Abraham promised to god that he would only worship one god. P.S. you misspelled Abraham : )
because god gave you one.
The Bible says that Joshua, son of Nun, was one of the Israelites who came out of Egypt.In Egyptian mythology, Nun was the primordal god and father of the sun god, Ra. The biblical account also points to Joshua, son of Nun, as originally a Hebrew sun god, who evolved in legend into a mortal. This is a view of the origin of Joshua held by some scholars.
Dedication is the word that means a special promise to God.
God was not a sinner and forgave every one
Judaism. It is referred to as the Covenant with Abraham.
Judaism believes in One God, who created the world and gave the Torah. As for people, Judaism was transmitted through its many prophets and sages, including Abraham, Moses, Joshua, Isaiah, Daniel, Hillel, and others.
Moses renamed Hoshea son of Nun the name Joshua. Hoshea in Hebrew means "salvation" and Joshua means "The LORD is salvation". The name change was to remind the people of Israel and Joshua for trust on the LORD God alone for protection and not on any man. Numbers 13:16 These are the names of the men Moses sent to explore the land. (Moses gave Hoshea son of Nun the name Joshua.)
As the Israelites left Egypt on their exodus, Joshua was one of the twelve spies sent by Moses to reconnoiter the land of Canaan. Joshua and Caleb were the only two who had confidence that God would give Israel the land of Canaan despite its formidable inhabitants. Because of their faith God allowed Joshua and Caleb to enter the promised land, but he vowed that the others of Joshua's generation would die in the wilderness. God instructed Moses to designate Joshua as his successor. Joshua led the Israelites into the promised land. The book of Joshua recounts his victories at Jericho, Ai, and other places.
