"As I was with Moses, so I will be with you." (Joshua 1:5) This is God's promise to Joshua, but through the book of Joshua it becomes clear that this was also His promise to Israel and, fulfilled in Christ, His promise to us. More than mere history, Joshua is a narrative theology that directly propagates the covenant in salvation history.

"As I was with Moses, so I will be with you." (Joshua 1:5) This is God's promise to Joshua, but through the book of Joshua it becomes clear that this was also His promise to Israel and, fulfilled in Christ, His promise to us. More than mere history, Joshua is a narrative theology that directly propagates the covenant in salvation history. Dr. Harstad employs a historical-grammatical method in this original translation, and he pursues what he considers the grand theme of Joshua; The Lord fulfills His promises to the land of Israel. He also considers Joshua as a sort of parallel to Acts, both being narrative histories about the continuation of the Church after the paradigm shifts of Moses' death and Christ's ascension. FeaturesAn overview of Joshua's place in the cannon A history, geography, and timeline of Joshua Comparisons of the roles of Joshua and the book of Acts Additional EssaysOn the Man Joshua The Central Themes and Subthemes of Joshua Excursi on Jericho, the Jordan, and the Name of the Lord About the series The Concordia Commentary Series: A Theological Exposition of Sacred Scripture is written to enable pastors and teachers of the Word to proclaim the Gospel with greater insight, clarity, and faithfulness to the divine intent of the Biblical text. The series will cover all the canonical books of the Old and New Testament, with an original translation and meticulous grammatical analysis of the Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek of each text. The foremost interpretive lens centers on the unified proclamation of the person and work of Christ across every Scriptural book. The Commentary fully affirms the divine inspiration, inerrancy, and authority of Scripture; Each passage bears witness to the confession that God has reconciled the world to Himself through the incarnation, ministry, death, resurrection, and ascension of Christ His Son. Authors expose the rich treasury of language, imagery, and thematic content of the Scripture, while supplementing their work with additional research in archaeology, history, and extrabiblical literature. Throughout, God's Word emanates from authors careful attention and inculcates the ongoing life of the Church in Word, Sacrament, and daily confession.
