Joshua 21:44The Passion TranslationYahweh kept his promise and gave them peace in the land just as he had promised to their forefathers. Not one of their enemies could stand against them. See the chapter |
“Remember the words that Yahweh’s servant Moses commanded you: ‘Yahweh your God is giving you this land on the east side of the Jordan as your homeland.’ Therefore, your wives, your little ones, and your livestock may remain here, but all your valiant warriors must cross over with us armed. They will take the lead and help their brothers
Yahweh fought alongside Joshua’s fighting men to defeat them. Part of the Israelite army attacked and pursued the retreating forces as far north as the cities of Misrephoth Maim and Sidon. Another part of the Israelite army pursued the enemy as far east as the valley of Mizpah and crushed them all, leaving no survivors.
