Bible EncountersLesson 16: Ancient Warrior God viewI admit that this view is really going to mess with you. It messes with me. Does that necessarily mean it's wrong though? Maybe not. In this view, Peter Enns, Abram S. Clemens professor of biblical studies at Eastern University, will argue that the Joshua conquest account describes how Israel viewed God but not necessarily what Israel did or what God told them to do. Instead, Enns argues a theological point is made regarding what it means to be a member of God's people (i.e. Rahab and Achan). Brace yourselves guys, this will make you uncomfortable.
