AMPLIFIED 2015 | Hebrews 11:32 ¶ And what more shall I say? For time will fail me if I tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets, [Judg 4; 5; 6-8; 11; 12; 13-16; 1 Sam 1-30; 2 Sam 1-24; 1 Kin 1; 2; Acts 3:24] |
Bible Question:
IN THE BOOK OF HEBREWS CH.11 MENTIONS ALOT OF PEOPLE WHO HAD FAITH IN GOD. WHY DOES IT NOT INCLUDE JOSHUA? |
Bible Answer: As much as I agree that Joshua should be included in the "Faith Hall of Fame" (Joshua is my favorite OT character). The list is not suppost to be exhastive. Look at the others that were not mentioned, ex. Elijah, Elisha, Isaiah. The author is pointing to these individuals as examples that we can follow. Though Joshua is not mentioned by name one event is mentioned that connects him to the "Hall of Fame." Verse 30 mentions the fall of Jericho! I hope this helps. God Bless you Rev Raines, Is 40:31 |
