The Book of Joshua spans about 25 years starting soon after the death of Moses around 1,400 BC and records the culmination of Israel’s journey to the Promised Land. Authorship is anonymous but was likely written by Joshua himself or a scribe under his direction. Early chapters include firsthand experiences and military details worthy of being credited to a general. After Joshua’s death, the high priests Eleazar or Phinehas may have added supplementary material.
