RESPONSIVE READING
Joshua 11.1 When Jabin, king of Hazor, heard of this, he sent messages to the kings of Madon, Shimron, and Achshaph, 2 and to the kings who were in the northern hill country, and in the south, and in the lowland, and on the west, 3 to the Canaanites in the east and the west, the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, and the Jebusites in the hill country, and the Hivites under Hermon in the land of Mizpah.

4 And they came out with all their troops, a great horde, in number like the sand that is on the seashore, with very many horses and chariots.

5 And all these kings joined their forces and came and encamped
together at the waters of Merom to fight against Israel. 6 And the Lord said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, for tomorrow at this time I will give over all of them, slain, to Israel. You shall hamstring their horses and burn their chariots with fire.”

7 So Joshua and all his warriors came suddenly against them
by the waters of Merom and fell upon them.

8 And the Lord gave them into the hand of Israel, 9 And Joshua
did to them just as the Lord said to him: he hamstrung their horses
and burned their chariots with fire.

15 Just as the Lord had commanded Moses his servant, so Moses commanded Joshua, and so Joshua did. He left nothing undone
of all that the Lord had commanded Moses.

16 So Joshua took all that land.  18 Joshua made war a long
time with all those kings. 19 There was not a city that made
peace with the people of Israel except the Hivites,
the inhabitants of Gibeon. They took them all in battle.

20 For it was the Lord’s doing to harden their hearts that
they should come against Israel in battle, in order that
they should be devoted to destruction and should receive no
mercy but be destroyed, just as the Lord commanded Moses.

23 So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the Lord had spoken to Moses. And Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel according to their tribal allotments. And the land had rest from war.

13.1 Now Joshua was old and advanced in years, and the Lord
said to him, “You are old and advanced in years, and there
remains yet very much land to possess. Only allot the land to
Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded you.
I myself will drive them out from before the people of Israel.

Easter
Immanuel Church Responsive Reading 4.12.20

Luke 24.1-12 ESV But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared.

2 And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb,

3 but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

4 While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel.

5 And as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead?

6 He is not here, but has risen. Remember how he told you,
while he was still in Galilee,

7 that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and on the third day rise.”

8 And they remembered his words,
9 and returning from
the tomb they told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.

10 Now it was Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James and the other women with them who told these things to the apostles,

11 but these words seemed to them an idle tale, and they did not believe them.

12 But Peter rose and ran to the tomb; stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths by themselves; and he went home marveling at what had happened.
