i read the part where joshua was now an old man and he was nearing his death.
he gathered all the people and spoke to them about God's truth. he reminded people of God's faithfulness in everything, how God kept all of His promises - promises of deliverance to the promised land and also promises of punishment for disobedience. he told people that they should fear God always, for God is just so powerful in every way. he told people that they live on the promised land where fruits, crops & other food to eat are just provided for them - the people didn't have to toil over the land to plant all those things; the previous occupants of the land put in the effort, and the people just took over (by winning over the land from the war) and they get to live comfortably... and this was all because God chose to provide for them in this way. then after this... joshua died.
