The parallels between Moses and Joshua are a major feature of this book, which we first explored in lesson 1. In 24:29, Joshua is called a “servant of the Lord” for the first time. Until now that’s a title used exclusively of Moses.

In the chart in your workbook, fill in the missing row using the references provided. This will alert you to the primary role each of these two figures had in leading God’s people.

8. To fill in the row, consult the following references for Moses: Deuteronomy 29–30; Exodus 24:3-8; Joshua 8:30-35; 24:1-28. In your workbook briefly describe what the text tells us occurs in this part of each story.
