This video tells the complete story of Joshua—from Moses’ successor to the leader who brought Israel into the Promised Land.
You’ll understand how Israel crossed the Jordan, conquered Jericho, received its inheritance, and why Joshua’s final message was about faithfulness—not military victory.

The Book of Joshua begins with the death of Moses and a new generation standing at the edge of Canaan. Joshua must lead Israel across the Jordan and into the land promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

This complete Bible documentary follows Rahab and the spies, the miraculous Jordan crossing, the fall of Jericho, Achan’s sin, the defeat and later victory at Ai, the covenant ceremony at Mount Ebal, the Gibeonite deception, the day the sun stood still, and Israel’s southern and northern campaigns.

But Joshua is more than a story of battles. The second half follows the distribution of the land, Caleb’s inheritance, Shiloh, the cities of refuge, the eastern tribes’ altar, and Joshua’s final covenant at Shechem. Ultimately, the book asks whether Israel will remain faithful after receiving what God promised.

Interpretation Note

This documentary follows the biblical text as its primary foundation. Descriptions of Joshua’s emotions, military strategy, Canaanite political conditions, geographic reconstruction, and the motivations of individuals sometimes include narrative or historical interpretation where Scripture does not provide every detail.

Explanations of Joshua 10 and the sun standing still, the nature and extent of Israel’s conquest, and the relationship between Joshua’s victories and later tribal settlement involve interpretive questions on which readers and scholars may differ. The documentary distinguishes these explanations from what the biblical text states directly.
