Joshua in Numbers 14
JOSH-oo-uh
This person shows up in Numbers 14:6: “Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were of those who spied out the land, tore their clothes.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real person in a real place.
Numbers 14:6
“Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were of those who spied out the land, tore their clothes.”
