The promised land was the land set aside by God for the Israelites, who later became known as the Jews. The Israelites had to wander around the desert for 40 years under the leadership of Moses. Moses did not enter the promised land, but instead died after God had shown him it. Instead of Moses going in, Joshua lead the people in instead.

Joshua was one of the scouts that had spied on the people that were already occupating the land at that time, and who his armies, through the power of The Lord, went on to destroy.

The first battle Joshua had was against the city of Jericho. They won that battle, by following the commands of The Lord, and by walking around the city walls for seven days.
