Sefer Yehoshua: Archaeology
This video is part of the Sefer Study series.
This is an analysis of the Archaeology of the Sefer by Nachliel Selavan.
Archaeology Snapshot is a discussion on the location, timeline, main characters and highlights from history and archaeology, for each Sefer in Tanach.
Sefer Yehoshua ends the wandering in the wilderness, and begins the chapter of Am Yisrael in Eres Yisrael. Here we begin the conquest of the land, and the inheritance into its tribal divisions.
In this episode, we attempt to discuss the chronology of Sefer Yehoshua, as well as address some highlights such as the crossing of the Jordan, the walls of Yericho, and the Mishkan in Shiloh.
