The book of Joshua is dealt with. 

Thumosis III was the leader of the global world of his time and when he died in the Red Sea that morning in 1450 BC, the whole Levant heard about the shame.

The SA.GAZ or ha-bi-ru or Hebrews caused the death of the greatest general of the strongest on earth! So no Egyptian pharaoh afterwards wanted to travel through Israel. They travelled on the sides long the Tranjordan highway to Beth-shean and then to the Hittite world above Damascus. But they preferred to stay away from the country between 1450-1410 BC. Scarabs here and there exists as copies.

But they had police centers in cities still to collect taxes. When the SA.GAZ people or Hebrews arrived at Jericho in 1410 BC, all nations squatting in the country as migrants and all in Levant was excited.

Finally the overthrow of the empire of Egypt colonialism is on its way in their area.

So the Amarna war period letters were send to the pharaoh’s palace, Thutmosis IV who was the grandson of Thutmosis III. Please come and help us the SA.GAZ ha-bi-ru people are attacking us. But they did not. Letter after letter were sent.

Why? Yahweh was helping them. It was God Who led them to drive out the squatters in the region.

Some SA.GAZ people or ha-bi-ru were secular and not religious. They only want to live a rich life in business so they moved to Ugarit or Rash Shamra and texts there showed that they style of worship at Baal and Dagon temples was influenced by Israelite content of Moses.

So now the religious SA.GAZ was following the Lord in the country for five years.

It helps a lot to follow God. With faith in His Word and not with feelings and self-created ritual models. Borrowing from surrounding worship styles. Right?
