inheritance
DESCRIPTION
Having conquered the land of Canaan, Joshua divides the land into the various inheritances for each tribe of Israel. In this we see that God is faithful to keep his promises (but we must be faithful no matter how long it takes)., that our inheritance is much more than we could imagine, and just like the Israelites we must continue to work.TRANSCRIPT
