Bible Timeline Series: Canaan & Judges


Listen Later

In this episode we will be talking about how God and Moses set up the new leader of the Israelites to be Joshua. In the book of Joshua, we see that God begins with baptizing His people by parting the Jordan River, having them remember the promises that God has given to the tribes through circumcision (which had been neglected) and Passover.  After the Israelites are reminded that God has and will always be faithful to His people, they attack the city of Jericho and begin their long battles of clearing the Canaanites out of the land of Canaan. The book ends with the tribes being split up and given different lands and no specific leader is ordained. The Israelites are largely spread out and ruled by elders and priests. 

These leaders are not strong and they rebelled against God, so God sends Canaanites to rule over them. The people cry out and God sends Judges to save them. In this episode we talk about the different Judges and how they execute judgement on behalf of God. These judges spiral with the people of God out of control. The end of Judges ends with just a disgusting story.


Some of this podcast is not suitable for young children. There are parts of Judges that are very graphic and I thought it was necessary to cover those stories. I hope this podcast is edifying to you.
