Joshua is a historical novel written by Georg Ebers. The story is set in ancient Israel during the time of Joshua, the successor of Moses. The novel follows the journey of Joshua and the Israelites as they conquer the land of Canaan, facing many challenges and battles along the way. The book also explores the political and religious climate of the time, as well as the personal struggles and motivations of the characters. Throughout the novel, Ebers weaves together themes of faith, loyalty, and perseverance, creating a compelling and insightful portrayal of one of the most significant periods in Jewish history. Joshua is a rich and engaging work of historical fiction that will captivate readers with its vivid descriptions, complex characters, and gripping plot.When the tribes, full of enthusiasm for their God, and ready for the most arduous enterprises, shook off their chains and, exulting in their new liberty, rushed forward to the Promised Land Moses, and with him the majority of the elders, had believed that, like a mountain torrent, bursting dams and sluices, they would destroy and overthrow everything that ventured to oppose their progress. With these enthusiastic masses, to whom bold advance would secure the highest good, and timid hesitation could bring nothing save death and ruin, they had expected to rush over the Etham line as if it were a pile of faggots.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
