The ending of this chapter really puts a bow on so many weeks of our reading thus far in 2023.
43 So the Lord gave Israel all the land he had sworn to give their ancestors, and they took possession of it and settled there. 44 The Lord gave them rest on every side, just as he had sworn to their ancestors. Not one of their enemies withstood them; the Lord gave all their enemies into their hands. 45 Not one of all the Lord’s good promises to Israel failed; every one was fulfilled. Joshua 21:43-45
This should really make us think about how God will always come through for us… even if we screw up. The Israelites could have had this inheritance DECADES earlier if they had not turned against God, but he was still faithful after the people had gone through the consequences of their actions.
