Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from What the Bible Teaches About War and the Christian's Attitude in the Present Crisis
But the conquest of Canaan is only partially completed under Joshua, and hence war continues even into David's time. And here again is it often incited by God, who sometimes indicates the plan of warfare, gives signal instances of His presence and favor, and regards with jealousy ascription of the victory to any other than Himself. He teaches my hands to war, says David, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms. Thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle; thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me. Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O Lord, among the nations, and sing praises unto thy name. (ps. 39, And so the history continues as every reader of the Old Testament is aware. It is largely a recital of the wars in which Jehovah is the aggressor, either on behalf of His people Israel, or against them when their conduct requires punishment.
