Israel: jericho

Forty years after God led Israel out of Egypt, he brought them into the promised land. The nation camped on the plains of Jericho and “kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month” (Josh. 5:10). Since leaving Egypt, the people had been eating manna daily. But now, the manna stopped, and they began to enjoy the “fruit of the land of Canaan” (Josh. 5:12).
