More destruction in Joshua's wake

Chapter 11 in the book of Joshua deals with King Jabin of Hazor--in those days, the kingdom of Hazor was the most powerful.

King Jabin hears of Joshua and the Israelites, so he gathers up all of his armies and of those in the nearby kingdoms.  Together, they move on to slaughter Joshua.  Only, the Israelites are much too clever and surprise attack him.

Nothing is left behind in their wake.  It is total destruction.

In chapter 12, it is a recap of the wars fought by Moses and then by Joshua.
