The History | Joshua - I Kings 12
Sep 2, 2026 • Pastor Jason Duff
As we move from Deuteronomy into Joshua, we enter a new section of the Old Testament: the historical books.
In this lesson, Pastor Jason Duff provides the historical and biblical context surrounding Israel’s entrance into the Promised Land. Learn about the world around 1400 BC, the land of Canaan, the nations surrounding Israel, the Philistines, Canaanite religion and culture, and the authorship and perspective of several of the Old Testament historical books.
Understanding the setting behind Scripture helps us better understand the people, events, and purposes recorded throughout the biblical story.
