Joshua was the undisputed leader of the Jews after the passing of Moses. Even during Moses’ lifetime, Joshua played an important role as Moses’ aide and confidante and protegé. Among his many accomplishments: He led the war effort and vanquished the Amaleks immediately after the Exodus; He was Moses’ right hand man in his lifetime, and never departed from his side, in fact he remained at the foot of Mount Sinai for the duration of the 40 days that Moses had ascended to Heaven, and joined Moses as they returned to the camp to find the Jews celebrating the Golden Calf; Joshua was one of the twelve leaders of the nation tasked with the responsibility of scouting out the Land, and together with Caleb, was one of the two righteous spies who did not slander the Land; When Moses asked the Almighty to choose a successor, the Almighty instructed him to select Joshua, a man of spirit to designate and strengthen as his successor; After Moses passed, Joshua immediately leads the conquest of the Land of Canaan/Israel and the 7 mighty nations and 31 different kings which are united against them. Part One of our study of Joshua will orient around his role in the Torah as Moses’ trusted disciple.
