IAmSabrina:Read this Source:Wikipedia In the narrative of the conquest of Canaan in the Book of Joshua, the Battle of Jericho is the first battle that is described. According to Joshua 6:1-27, the walls of Jericho fell after Joshua's Israelite army marched around the city blowing their trumpets. Excavations at Tell es-Sultan, the biblical Jericho, have failed to produce data to substantiate the biblical story,[2] and scholars are virtually unanimous that the Book of Joshua holds little historical value.[3] Battle of Jericho (biblical) JSC the battle of Jericho.png Depiction by Julius Schnoor von Carolsfeld (1794-1872) Location Jericho Result Decisive Hebrew victory Belligerents Israelites Canaanites Commanders and leaders Joshua King of Jericho † Strength 40,000[1] Unknown Casualties and losses Nil Herem Joshua 6:1-27 Edit The story of Jericho is told in Joshua 6:1-27. The first five books of the Hebrew Bible tell how Noah cursed Canaan to become a slave, and how God gave the land of the Canaanites to Abraham and his descendants. The children of Israel (descendants of Abraham) themselves became slaves in Egypt, but through Moses God brought them out of Egypt and to the borders of the promised land of Canaan. There Moses instructed them to seize the land by conquest, and placed them under the command of Joshua. Joshua sent spies to Jericho, the first city of Canaan to be taken, and discovered that the land was in fear of Israel and their God. The Israelites marched around the walls once every day for six days with the priests and the Ark of the Covenant. On the seventh day they marched seven times around the walls, then the priests blew their ram's horns, the Israelites raised a great shout, and the walls of the city fell. Following God's law of herem the Israelites took no slaves or plunder but slaughtered every man, woman and child in Jericho, sparing only Rahab, a Canaanite prostitute who had sheltered the spies, and her family. Origins and historicity In 1868, Charles Warren identified Tell es-Sultan as the site of Jericho.[4] In 1930–36, John Garstang conducted excavations there and discovered the remains of a network of collapsed walls which he dated to about 1400 BCE. Kathleen Kenyon re-excavated the site over 1952–1958 and demonstrated that the destruction occurred c.1500 BCE during a well-attested Egyptian campaign of that period, and that Jericho had been deserted throughout the mid-late 13th century BCE.[5] Kenyon's work was corroborated in 1995 by radiocarbon tests which dated the destruction level to the late 17th or 16th centuries.[6] A small unwalled settlement was rebuilt in the 15th century, but the tell was unoccupied from the late 15th century until the 10th/9th centuries.[2] Most scholars agree that the book of Joshua holds little of historical value.[3] Its origin lies in a time far removed from the times it depicts,[7] and its intention linked with a theological scheme in which Israel and her leaders are judged by their obedience to the teachings and laws (the covenant) set down in the book of Deuteronomy, rather than as history in the modern sense.[8] The story of Jericho, and the conquest generally, probably represents the nationalist propaganda of the kings of Judah and their claims to the territory of the Kingdom of Israel after 722 BCE;[9] these chapters were later incorporated into an early form of Joshua written late in the reign of King Josiah (reigned 640–609 BCE), and the book was revised and completed after the fall of Jerusalem to the Babylonians in 586, and possibly after the return from the Babylonian exile in 538.[10] The combination of archaeological evidence and analysis of the composition history and theological purposes of the Book of Joshua led archaeologist William G. Dever to deem the biblical story of the fall of Jericho as "[not] founded on genuine historical sources" and "invented out of whole cloth."[11] |

IAmSabrina:So with what we have being saying so far it means that if I take an event from the Bible which God did and I gave you an empirical and variable evidence that God himself did it,you will believe he exist. |

"If I plant a bomb on a place and the bomb exploded and 10 years later I took you to the place where the bomb exploded and you saw how the bomb affected the place after 10 years will you believe that I planted a bomb on that same place 10 years ago" |

[quote author=beatmonster post=76907595] Sorry, there is sth called telescope. Try again[/quote So you are telling me that if you buy a telescope from a shop and you look outer space through the telescope and you saw a planet then you will believe that there is a planet, but now you all are saying that the Bible was written by men to deceive people.So how are you sure that the telescope was not built by men to deceive people. 4 Likes |
