Rev. John Lukomski, retired LCMS pastor, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Joshua 10.

“Thus the LORD will do to all your enemies!” With that, Joshua executed the five kings that had conspired against Israel. Joshua 10 seems like a brutal chapter of the Old Testament, but it’s important to understand that violence is not at the center of God’s purpose here. God wants there to be peace in the land, but that will only come through “devotion” to Him.Our Lord Jesus Christ devoted Himself to God by allowing Himself to be destroyed. Like the five kings, He was struck, hanged on a tree, and buried in a cave behind a great stone. But unlike them, the true king and the true Joshua did not stay dead, because God’s grace for all prevails over His wrath.
