Rev. Dr. Alfonso Espinosa, pastor of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Irvine, California, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Joshua 14.

Did you know that Joshua and Caleb were old men during the wars of Canaan? Caleb was 85 years old after the northern campaign, and yet he says “I am still as strong today as I was in the day that Moses sent me.” In both confidence and humility, he asks for Joshua’s blessing to take possession of Judah’s inheritance by doing battle with the giant Anakim.

Chapter 14 takes a step back to appreciate the faithfulness of God. God had mercifully spared Caleb and Joshua, keeping them strong to bless the next generation. God is always faithful, whether or not we faithlessly forfeit what He has promised. Caleb of Judah foreshadows our Lord Jesus of the same tribe, who defeated Satan in battle, was blessed with resurrection, and comes again to bring resurrection and peace to the earth.
