Did the sun stand still for Joshua?

A friend asked me about the sun not moving in Joshua’s battle against the Amorites. The question led to a discussion on how to read the Bible in the same manner that the authors meant it to be read. This book examines a method to read the Bible and recognize the figures of speech the authors used. It looks at the story of Joshua’s battle with the Amorites and what the phrase “the sun stood still” meant. Discover PaRDeS, which is a method of biblical study.
