4kings,

Isn't it shameful that the OP started with a lie? How come the OP could say that the Bible "suggests" that the Canaanites were completely wiped out when, in fact, Joshua 17:12-13 and Judges 1:27-33 plainly record the failure of the Israelites to utterly destroy the Canaanites?

And isn't it cool that the study actually confirms what the Bible is saying?

felixomor:

Its obvious these folks dont know the Bible They thought they found something new to hang on to
Own Goal for them

Thinking of it now, Jezebel was actually a Canaanite (oops).

See why the Bible is very messed up:
According to Joshua 10:40 : So Joshua smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the vale, and of the springs, and all their kings: he left none remaining, but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the Lord God of Israel commanded.
A further confirmation of this was given in Joshua 11:15: As the Lord commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that the Lord commanded Moses.

More to this, the book of Genesis, Deuteronomy, until Joshua was written years not far apart from each other by maybe Moses, Joshua or whoever(same group of guys).
But Judges was written by Samuel(or whoever) centuries later.

I seriously don't want another argument but every sane person can see the ''mess up'' here. Should we call this a mistake in Joshua and Moses' part or a lie, you choose.
Can't believe i just noticed that now, as usual the bible never stops giving.

Abeg i no wan argue unnecessary, if u wan quote, quote reasonably.

Your mind is actually messed up dude
Did you chose those verses and ignore verses like this one

Joshua 13:1


Now Joshua was old and advanced in years when the LORD said to him, "You are old and advanced in years, and very much of the land remains to be possessed.

As if nothing remained? Keep deluding yourself.
Both you and the OP are deceiving yourselves
The fact that they were commanded to wipe out does not mean they were actually wiped out. Maybe you don't know that this research is only confirming biblical stories

felixomor:


Hehehe,
Someone is trying to cover his tracks
Lmao

4kings:

Cover wetin?
You better go and ask Yahweh some questions.

felixomor:


Still pained at the own goal

4kings:

Instead of addressing the point, you don start as usual abi?

4kings:

Wtf are you saying?
Does this indicate in any manner which land remained?

The portion of land allotted to Israelite was first written in Genesis 15:8, more details is shown in Joshua 1:4. Digest those scriptures first.
After reading the scriptures it would be obvious that lands remained to be conquered, but how does this affect what i posted?
Couldn't it have been lebanon or somewhere else?

For goodness sake the instruction to take out the cannanite, was implemented in Joshua 10 the popular chapter where Joshua told the sun to stand still so he can win the battle(every body that attended sunday school regularly knows this ).

The land the israelite were supposed to take according to the verses above and the bible were to extend to Lebanon, euphrates river, jordan, even to syria, saudi arabia and iraq.
So the scripture you posted does not in any way disprove my point.

rhektor:


It did, you are the one not getting the message. The instruction was to wipe them off, it was an instruction. Whenever you have an instruction to do anything does it really mean you've actually done that? I don't know what is really wrong with all these wannabe nairaland atheists, they would ignore all forms of reasoning and logic to argue truth.
It's really funny

felixomor:


I have already addressed the issue na.
The post only confirms the bible
Several verses clearly show that.

4kings:

Did you read my post?
Verses from where?

felixomor:


The scriptures are already listed above by others

Your assumption is based on what Joshua waz instructed to do.
Not what the Isrealites did eventually.
Its quite simple dear.

4kings:

Explain this: Joshua 10 : 40 Thus Joshua struck all the land, the hill country and the Negev and the lowland and the slopes and all their kings. He left no survivor, but he utterly destroyed all who breathed, just as the LORD, the God of Israel, had commanded.

felixomor:


And what u just read,
Does it cover the whole of Canaan?

Simple answer please.

4kings:

wow, this is getting interesting
you tell me...

felixomor:


Good, your dodge says it all

4kings:

Says what all?
Ok, the story from Genesis to Joshua indicates that Canaan was wiped out.

felixomor:

My simple question has made your attempt ambiguous..

Hehehehe, poor try....
