Summary "The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 06: Josue" is a religious text written during the early modern period, mainly in the late 16th to early 17th centuries. This book narrates the story of Josue (Joshua), the successor of Moses, as he leads the Israelites into the Promised Land after their exodus from Egypt. The content primarily focuses on Josue's leadership, the conquest of various cities such as Jericho, and the division of the land among the tribes of Israel. At the start of "Josue," we are introduced to the pivotal moment after the death of Moses when God appoints Josue as the new leader of the Israelites. The opening chapters describe God's encouragement of Josue, the preparations for crossing the Jordan River into Canaan, and significant events such as the sending of spies to Jericho and Rahab's assistance. The miraculous crossing of the Jordan River is presented, concluding with the establishment of memorial stones as a lasting sign of God's faithfulness. These early developments set the tone for the themes of faith, obedience, and divine assistance in the trials faced by the Israelites as they endeavor to claim their inheritance.
