Chapter 11: Divine Design and Human Initiative

Rabbi Michael Hattin

This lesson will trace the progression of Yehoshua’s battles, and examine the logic behind the order of conquests. We will compare the battle against the Kings of the North with the battle of Jericho, and the battle against the Kings of the South with the battle against Ai. As the wars progress, there is a notable decline in divine intervention, and an incline in human initiative and design.
