Israel marches around Jericho for a week, blows some trumpets, and the whole city wall just ragequits.

What Happened

God's battle plan is unhinged — march around the city once a day for six days, then seven times on day seven, then scream. The walls collapse and Israel takes the city. Rahab and her family get spared because she helped the spies earlier. Military strategists are still confused.

The Walls Came Down

God gives Joshua the wildest military strategy of all time — march around the city, blow some trumpets, and scream. The walls of Jericho fall flat, Rahab gets saved, and everyone learns that God's plans don't need to make sense to work.
