Introduction
3. The spying out of Jericho ch. 2
As preparation for entering Canaan, Joshua sent spies to reconnoiter the area Israel would enter.
"Although Joshua had received a promise from the Lord of His almighty help in the conquest of Canaan, he still thought it necessary to do what was requisite on his part to secure the success of the work committed to him, as the help of God does not preclude human action, but rather presupposes it."
