Josué 21

Barber comments that the writer "sees how God had dispossessed nations greater and mightier than Israel in order to give to His people the land that He had sworn to Abraham. He had been faithful in all He had done. None of His promises had failed. His gifts to His chosen people were threefold: (1) a possession, (2) rest, and (3) peace. All that remained was for Israel to respond to Him in gratitude and devotion. (Joshua: A Devotional Exposition:) Matthew
