Just a little quiz to see what sunk in and what didn't.....Sometimes when I am busy and have to read too fast some of it doesn't sink in so I must go back......I just like this as a tool because when you have to slow down and think, sometimes it gets in the brain a little better....at least it does for me.....

1.Three tribes: Rueben, Mannesah, and Gad were on the east side of the Jordan. And Moses did not get to cross the Jordan, did he?
ReplyDelete2. God used Rahab to help the children of Isarael then she was the only one of her tribe (and her family) not to be destroyed.
3. Achan took gold and silver and hid it ater he was told not to. I think. He was stoned and buried in the valley (called the Valley of Achan or Trouble).
4. Not sure. Did they move the Arc of the Covenant to Shiloh?
5. Agree with Bonnie.
6. How many kings were conquered? All of them?
7. I think Joshua got an allotment because he and Caleb had obeyed God by saying they would fight unlike the other men, who were afraid to fight because they did not believe God could help them win against strong forces. Or he might have gotten an allotment because he was the leader, as Moses had been.
8.In Shechem Joshua built an altar so that the tribes of Gad, Reuben and half of Mannasus could see where the other tribes were??? NOt sure.
9. Joshua was 110 years old as was Joseph in Genesus Chapter 50.
