We delve into the conquest of the Promised Land under Joshua's leadership. Following Moses' final speech and his death, Joshua leads the Israelites in miraculous victories, starting with Jericho and Ai. The episode explores the challenges and triumphs faced by the Israelites, including the deceitful alliance with the Gibeonites and the miraculous intervention of God with hailstones and the sun standing still. Joshua's campaigns in southern and northern Canaan establish Israel's dominance, beginning to fulfill God's promise of land. Before his death, Joshua apportions the land among the 12 tribes and narrowly avoids civil war.
