Jericho

The conquest of Jericho was vital to the conquest of Canaan. God demonstrated His power over this ancient city built and maintained by pagan occult powers. The city was devoted to destruction and utterly destroyed by the army of Israel.

The focus of Hebrews 11 is upon the faith of the faithful remnant according to the election of Grace. These people trusted God and committed themselves to this very unusual and dangerous tactic. In seven days, they saw God victorious over His enemies.
