Battle of Jericho

Joshua 5:13–6:27

The most fortified city in Canaan fell without a single sword being drawn.

Joshua stands before Jericho — walled, locked, impenetrable. No one goes in or out. Then God gives the strangest military strategy in history: march around the city once a day for six days. On the seventh day, march seven times. Then blow the trumpets and shout. That's it. No battering rams, no siege towers, no assault. Just marching, silence, and trumpets. Can you imagine being inside Jericho, watching an army march in circles for a week? On the seventh day, the trumpets blast, the people shout, and the walls collapse. The city falls without a battle.
