This land had been promised to them in Numbers 32.\n\n### Driving out the people\n\nWhile Yahweh achieved many great victories through Joshua, Israel was still supposed to drive out the rest of the Canaanites. Israels success in this would depend on their faith in Yahweh. (See: [[rc://*/tw/dict/bible/kt/faith]])
