Rev. Kevin Martin, pastor of Our Savior Lutheran Church in Raleigh, North Carolina, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Joshua 15.

Like the apostles who testified to the resurrection, Caleb & Joshua were God’s witnesses who testified to the conquest of Canaan: God was giving them the same land they saw 45 years ago. In chapter 15, the names of the borders and cities are like the nail marks and spear wound of the Lord Jesus.

Zin was the extreme southern edge where Israel sojourned and where David would run for his life. The Valley of Achor marked the place where Israel came under judgment on account of Achon. And certain cities would remain unconquered for some time, most notably Jerusalem. Only the true Messiah truly delivers Jerusalem, with resurrection and salvation “prepared in the sight of every people.”
