Chapter 2: A Promise Fulfilled
Joshua and the Neighbour’s Ruse
"We can be crafty too," the king of the Hivites said. They had put old sacks on their donkeys' back and old leather wineskins, cracked and torn and tied together with string. The sandals on their feet were falling apart. Their clothes were tattered and torn. And you should have seen the food they carried in their bags - dry old bread, and mouldy crumbs. And you should have seen their donkeys, the oldest and scrawniest. This pathetic tableau arrived at the Israelite camp in Gilgal - crafty men determined to trick Joshua.

Chapter 8: Our God is Good
Joshua and the Strange Plan for Battle
Joshua eventually went back to his tent with the Warrior's words still ringing in his ears. "I have come as the Commander of the Lord's army." Was Joshua taken aback? Wasn't he, Joshua, the leader of the Lord's army? As Joshua prayed that night, I imagine he said, "Thank you, Lord, for coming to lead your army." The Lord told Joshua what to do next. He must have - who else could have thought up such a strange way to conquer the city of Jericho?
