Joshua Worksheet - Chapter 11

JOSHUA 11      Review:  In Chapter 10, five kings in the area come together to fight against the Gibeonites who had made peace with Israel. Gibeon calls out to Joshua and Israel to help them. They fight the kings and their armies and win over the southern area of the land of promise. Joshua hangs the five kings and puts stones over them in a heap to mark the victory they had there. They continued to fight with the Lord keeping the sun still in the sky and even helping them with hailstones from heaven. In Chapter 11, the kings of the north assemble together with their armies against Israel. The Lord gives them victory over them as well.  When Jabin, king of Hazor, heard of the victories Israel recently had in the area, he got the kings of the north together with all of their armies along with many horses and chariots (vs.1-4).  Where did all of the kings meet up at? vs. 5 What was their purpose in "one accord"? vs. 5 The Lord told Joshua not to be afraid of them.
