There is the advantage of having been personally SELECTED by their parents. Illus: Have you ever seen anyone go to a dog pound and adopt a little puppy? Once that little ...read more

    In chapter 1, we find that Moses died and the Lord has chosen Joshua to take his place.

    Because Moses became angry and struck the rock, he was deprived of the privilege of leading the people of God into the Promised Land.
