Joshua 6:26

²⁶And Joshua adjureth [them] at that time, saying, 'Cursed [is] the man before Jehovah who raiseth up and hath built this city, [even] Jericho; in his first-born he doth lay its foundation, and in his youngest he doth set up its doors;'e

Joshua 6 recounts the miraculous fall of Jericho, a pivotal event in Israel's conquest of Canaan. Under divine instruction, the Israelites march around the city for seven days, culminating in a final march and a great shout that causes the city walls to collapse. This chapter highlights God's unique battle strategy, Israel's obedience, and the complete destruction of Jericho, save for Rahab and her family, demonstrating God's power, faithfulness to His promises, and judgment against wickedness.
