Did Joshua really command the sun to stand still, or could an ancient solar eclipse explain this extraordinary biblical event? In this episode of Under the Hood, Sam and Will explore the original Hebrew of Joshua 10, the geography of Gibeon and Aijalon, and NASA's historical eclipse records. Could a solar eclipse in 1406 BC offer a surprising connection to Joshua's battle against the Amorites? Join us as we uncover the fascinating intersection of Scripture, history, and astronomy!

In this episode, we examine discoveries at Rameses/Avaris and Pithom - including massive grain-storage facilities, workers’ dwellings, and evidence of large-scale labor - and compare them with the world described in Exodus.
