Joshua 12:7-24


Joshua 12:7-24

And these are the kings of the country which Joshua and the children of Israel smote on this side Jordan on the west, from Baalgad in the valley of Lebanon even unto the mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir; which Joshua gave unto the tribes of Israel for a possession according to their divisions;
In the mountains, and in the valleys, and in the plains, and in the springs, and in the wilderness, and in the south country; the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites:
The king of Jericho, one; the king of Ai, which is beside Bethel, one;
The king of Jerusalem, one; the king of Hebron, one;
The king of Jarmuth, one; the king of Lachish, one;
The king of Eglon, one; the king of Gezer, one;
The king of Debir, one; the king of Geder, one;
The king of Hormah, one; the king of Arad, one;
The king of Libnah, one; the king of Adullam, one;
The king of Makkedah, one; the king of Bethel, one;
The king of Tappuah, one; the king of Hepher, one;
The king of Aphek, one; the king of Lasharon, one;
The king of Madon, one; the king of Hazor, one;
The king of Shimronmeron, one; the king of Achshaph, one;
The king of Taanach, one; the king of Megiddo, one;
The king of Kedesh, one; the king of Jokneam of Carmel, one;
The king of Dor in the coast of Dor, one; the king of the nations of Gilgal, one;
The king of Tirzah, one: all the kings thirty and one.

a. In order to get their inheritance of the land on the west side of  Jordan, Israel had to whip and dispossess 31 kings of their kingdoms.

b. Israel crossing the Jordan and entering the promised land is not a type and foreshadow of us going to heaven, it is a type and foreshadow of us getting born again and receiving our inheritance by faith.

Have you ever considered about adding a little bit more than just
your articles? I mean, what you say is important and all.

Nevertheless think of if you added some great graphics or
videos to give your posts more, "pop"! Your content is excellent but with images and video clips,
this blog could certainly be one of the best in its niche.

Awesome blog!
