Joshua's sixth chapter vividly recounts the fall of Jericho, which occurred over 3,500 years ago. But did this incident really occur? Many disagree, including those who reject the Bible and assert that it contains many tales that were written hundreds of years after the alleged occurrences. Many archaeologists contend that the biblical account is unreliable. They claim that Jericho may have never existed when the Israelites arrived in the Canaanite region. But according to the Bible, Israel's first Canaanite city conquest was Jericho. In the first part of the 15th century BCE, the city was destroyed. It was abandoned for hundreds of years before being fully destroyed by fire.
