What books would you suggest in studying the book of Joshua? Are there any helps that would be particularly useful for laymen in the church or perhaps for Bible college students?

I like and have used extensively Marten Woudstra in Joshua/NICOT.

I read his bio at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marten_Woudstra and found him quite interesting. I'm teaching Joshua on Wednesday nights at our church and am looking for fresh ideas. I think I'll ask for the book through interlibrary loan to get a taste for him. Thanks, pastor! Have you read the commentary by Richard S. Hess? I did an independent study with him when I was at Denver. I might look at that one as well. - Daniel |

I like "Be Strong" (by Wiersbe) and "Wiersbe's Expository Outlines on the Old Testament" for homilietical and practical ideas. They are not identical though written by the same man.

I'm with you on Wiersbe. I absolutely love his style and his input on virtually every book of the Bible. A very good friend purchased Logos software for me a few years ago and I have Wiersbe as one of my favorite choices on every search. I find a few gems in Arthur Pink's "Gleanings in Joshua" as well even if it is a bit dated. Appreciate the input, pastor.
