The Day the Sun Stood Still (Level 3 | 78)
About this episode
We delve into the extraordinary events surrounding the day the sun stood still, as described in Joshua Chapter 10. Joshua and the Israelites respond to an urgent plea from Gibeon, marching 20 miles overnight to confront an alliance of five Amorite kings. By God’s command, Joshua leads his men to an astounding victory, aided by divine intervention in the form of large hailstones. In a miraculous turn, Joshua prays for the sun and moon to stand still, resulting in an extended day that ensures a complete triumph over their enemies. The captured Amorite kings are executed, serving as a warning to Israel's foes.
