Deuteronomy 7:1 (New Living Translation)
When the Lord your God brings you into the land you are about to enter and occupy, he will clear away many nations ahead of you: the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites. These seven nations are greater and more numerous than you.
Some military concepts:
- The defender has a natural advantage.
- The attacker needs more people than the defender.
- The defender is operating on interior lines of support and has a big advantage.
Some biblical history concepts:
- All the military concepts were against the LORD’s people.
All means A L L. The LORD’s people were in a terrible military position. The odds in their favor, well, there were no odds in their favor. It is difficult for us today to imagine the situation since we know the history of success.
We tend to forget the miracles the LORD performed.
