I would be on Joshua and Caleb’s side because I am a born optimist. It does not mean I have more faith than the next man. When faith comes into play, I would be hesitant – not because I doubt that God would se us though, as to the morality of wholesale slaughter of the Canaanites.
God says he will give the land of Canaan to the Israelites but how – will the existing inhabitants just give up their land without a fight – it is difficult to believe they will ?
