Brother, have you picked up and read a Bible? Like even just Exodus?
Edit: I forgot that the fall of Jericho is the Book of Joshua, not Exodus, although timeline-wise, in the grand scheme of things, it’s still basically right after the Commandments, which was what I was getting at.
I was raised baptist. There’s a difference between events of the bible and what christians are commanded to do. Frankly I don’t give a rat’s ass anymore.
Well yes, religion exists within society and that society’s pressures determine which interpretations and philosophies are amplified and which are silenced.

Joshua and the Promised Land fucking up my perception of how the Bible flows narratively.
