Which Nation Deceived Joshua?
Canaanite City After the Destruction of Jericho and Ai, the Hivite People of Gibeon Sent Ambassadors to Trick Joshua and the Israelites into Making a Treaty...
Who made a treaty with Joshua?
The men of Israel sampled their provisions but did not inquire of the LORD. Then Joshua made a treaty of peace with them to let them live, and the leaders of the assembly ratified it by oath. Three days after they made the treaty with the Gibeonites, the Israelites heard that they were neighbors, living near them.
Who defeated the Israelites in Joshua?
However, they were defeated with thirty-six Israelite deaths. The defeat was attributed to Achan taking an "accursed thing" from Jericho; and was followed by Achan and his family and animals being stoned to death to restore God's favor.
