How Long Will You Wait?

Name Date

Read the Story

The people met at Shiloh. They set up the Tent of Meeting there. But seven tribes still had no land.

Joshua asked how long they would wait. God had given them the land. He told them to pick three men from each tribe to walk through the land and write about it.

The men walked through the land. They wrote it in a book in seven parts. Then Joshua cast lots before God at Shiloh. The tribe of Benjamin got the first lot.

Memory Verse

Joshua said to the children of Israel, “How long will you neglect to go in to possess the land, which Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has given you?
