Joshua is a historical novel written by Georg Ebers. The story takes place in ancient Israel during the time of Joshua, who was the successor of Moses and led the Israelites into the Promised Land. The novel follows the life of Joshua, from his childhood in Egypt to his leadership of the Israelites. It explores his struggles with faith, his battles against the Canaanites, and his relationships with his family and friends. The book also delves into the political and social climate of the time, including the worship of pagan gods and the conflicts between different tribes. Through the character of Joshua, Ebers portrays the importance of faith, courage, and perseverance in the face of adversity. The novel is a compelling and insightful portrayal of a pivotal figure in biblical history.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.
