Re: Joshua: NOT a liar
You are correct, the Bible uses hyperbole as in all the world or all the earth statements. Yet, in the case of Joshua, God gave them all the land. Joshua affirms that fact. Yet, with a little bit of reading we understand that while the parent may have given their children their house in their will. The children not claiming ownership of the house does not negate the fact the house was legally owned by the children.
