Revelation of God the Son

Joshua 23:1–16 (ESV)

1 A long time afterward, when the LORD had given rest to Israel from all their surrounding enemies, and Joshua was old and well advanced in years,

What does Joshua 23 reveal about what God does in my place and on my behalf (the work of the Son)? Graciously, God the Son has freed me from the penalty of sin and the power of the devil so that I might serve him. He has borne the judgment that I deserve for my failure to uphold God’s law. On the cross, God’s anger against my sin was poured out upon him.
