Key Verse 21:43-45

“So the Lord gave Israel all the land he had sworn to give their ancestors, and they took possession of it and settled there. The Lord gave them rest on every side, just as he had sworn to their ancestors. Not one of their enemies withstood them; the Lord gave all their enemies into their hands. Not one of all the Lord’s good promises to Israel failed; every one was fulfilled.

1.What instruction did God give to Joshua and why were these needed? (1-6,9, Nu35:9-34) Describe the cities of refuge? (7-8) What do these teach us about God? In what ways do these foreshadow Jesus Christ? (Ro6:10, Col1:20)

2.Why did the Levites not receive an inheritance of land among the Israelites?(13:14,33, Nu35:1-6) What request did the Levite make? (21:1-2) Describe how the Levites received their town (the descendants of Aaron (the priests), Kohathites, Ghershon, and Merari)? (3-8) Observe the twins the Levites received.(9-42) What can we learn from the Levites and God’s provision? Why do you think the Lord God has assigned their towns among Israel? (Nu35:1-8, Dt33:10, Exo19:5-6, Isa 11:9)

3.What did the author see and conclude when the LORD gave Israel the entire land of promise? (43-45) After how many years did the Lord fulfill all of his promises (Acts 13:16-20)? What does this passage show us about the Lord God? 

4.How did Joshua admonish and bless the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh? (1-8) What kind of altar did they build and why?(9-10) How did the altar create conflict among the Israelites, and what werer their appeals?(11-29)? How was it resolved (30-34)?
