Poorly written headline. Joshua did not conquer Israel; he lead Israel in conquering the land promised to Israel.

quote-Poorly written headline. Joshua did not conquer Israel; he lead Israel in conquering the land promised to Israel.

Correct.

I have been studying Hebrew and the letter Nun, is synonomous with Life.

So, Joshua, Son of ‘Nun’ could be really Joshua, Son of ‘Life’.

That is exactly who Joshua is in the New Testament. The world tends to use the Greek/latin transliterated name Jesus, but the english name for ‘Jesus’ is Joshua.

Not sure many get that connection. Lost in translations and traditions.

And most assuredly, He does lead His people into the promised land.

A side note, The Book of Jasher, referenced in Joshua and I believe 2 Samuel, note that the march around Jericho began on the 1st day of the 2nd month- Which is going to be this coming Sunday.
