The final chapter of Joshua is set in the context of a covenant renewal ceremony, but this time conducted by the aged leader of Israel. Although not a covenant itself but rather a report of a covenant renewal ceremony. Joshua is close to the end of his life; no replacement is on the horizon. The covenant renewal is a reminder to Israel that their king is Yahweh Himself and that, if they remain loyal to Him, they will enjoy His protection. Israel does not need a human king. As a theocratic nation, they have to ever keep in mind that their only king is the Lord.

Have you ever been jealous? When I was a kid, my friend had her very own camera. I was
VERY jealous. I wanted a camera too! The king of Israel realized that David was very popular
because he had killed the giant and enemies of God's people. The people loved David. But King
Saul was jealous. What would Saul do?
