The Rev. Nick Lannon continues his study of the book of Joshua with a look at most of chapter 8. Here, God tells Joshua the plan to conquer the city of Ai (v. 1-2), Joshua passes that plan on to the people (v. 3-9), and then the battle is engaged (v. 10-23). Finally the surviving king of Ai is brought to Joshua and executed (v. 24-29).
