The Conquest of Canaan, Jericho

The Israelite conquest came at a time when Egyptian control of Canaan was weakened. The Fall of Jericho is the first of three screenplays that tell the story of Joshua, who became the new leader of the Israelites after the death of Moses. Using recon, Joshua led the first military campaign against the Canaanites in the sparsely populated central highlands. The first script depicts the initial object of the first leg, which was the ancient stronghold of Jericho.
