    Together in the Land A Reading of the Book of Joshua
    (Sheffield Academic Press, 1993-03-23) Gordon Mitchell
    The text of Joshua presents the reader with a puzzling contradiction. One the one hand, there are commands to slaughter all of the enemy, descriptions of complete destruction and statements recording the success of the conquest, and on the other hand, Rahab's family, the Gibeonites and others continue to live in the land. To this puzzling contradiction, several explanations have been offered.
