I was having a little trouble with the wholesale killing of everyone and everything in the land but there was a passage that stated the reason. Guess I wasn't paying attention the first time... God wanted to clean it all out. These people were totally completely Sinful... had been getting worse and worse since the time of Sodom! So every time they come to a place and Obey what God tells them to do, they win. Mess up and the bad guys chase 'em off..running for the hills and whipped bad!
The parts about who got what land..boring. Seriously boring! I have no idea about the geography, so it was way out of my realm of interest.
There, how is that for interesting insights? Sorry! Although I don't really have any wise words of spiritual wisdom for this blog, I have to say that just sitting and reading what God was doing, how Forgiving He is... its uplifting and encouraging!!
LOL! I'm in the same boat with ya there. Brent would probably be able to tell me some interesting tidbits about the land divisions, and all, but I was crossing my eyes through all of it.
