Join Joshua and the people of Israel as they enter the land and defeat Canaanite kings in both the south and north of the Promised Land. Although God allotted all the land to the 12 tribes, the people were only able to settle in the hill country of central Israel. Even then the surrounding Canaanites and pagan tribes repeatedly entered and marauded their land. However, God periodically raised up judges to deliver them. The Philistines played a central role in this struggle between Israel and its pagan neighbors.
