- **Event Name**: The Problem of the Israelite Conquest
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 22 Mar, 2026 at 03:00 pm – Sun, 22 Mar, 2026 at 04:00 pm
- **Event Description**: For our March lecture, Dr. Walton will guide us in an examination of Joshua's conquest through ancient language and context.About this EventThe account of the conquest of the land in Joshua is one of the most contentious and potentially disturbing accounts in all of Scripture. Did God really call on the Israelites to conduct genocide? How do we account for the Israelites’ actions or for God’s commands to have no mercy (Deut 13:17)? In this talk we will re-examine the issue by applying an in-depth study of the meanings of words, verse and passages, and by comparing the text to ancient Near Eastern conquest accounts. Based on this fresh understanding, we will then consider what significance this issue has for today’s political positions.Lecturer Bio:  John H. Walton (Ph.D. Hebrew Union College) is Professor of Old Testament Emeritus at Wheaton College and Graduate School where he taught for twenty-two years. Dr. Walton has published over 30 books, among them commentaries, reference works, textbooks, scholarly monographs, and popular academic works. He was the Old Testament general editor for the Cultural Backgrounds Study Bible (NIV, NKJV, NRSV), and is perhaps most widely known forthe “Lost World” books (including The Lost World of Genesis One, The Lost World of Adam and Eve, and The Lost World of the Prophets). His methodology is laid out in his book, Wisdom for Faithful Reading: Principles and Practices for Old Testament Interpretation. His areas of expertise include the importance of the ancient Near East for interpreting the Old Testament as well as the dialogue between science and faith. He is currently publishing a two-volume commentary on the book of Daniel.
