6 And when aJoshua had dismissed the people, the children of Israel went each to his own inheritance to possess the land.
Death of Joshua
7 aSo the people served the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great works of the Lord which He had done for Israel.
8 Now aJoshua the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died when he was one hundred and ten years old.
9 aAnd they buried him within the border of his inheritance at bTimnath Heres, in the mountains of Ephraim, on the north side of Mount Gaash.
10 When all that generation had1 been gathered to their fathers, another generation arose after them who adid not know the Lord nor the work which He had done for Israel.
Israel’s Unfaithfulness
11 Then the children of Israel did aevil in the sight of the Lord, and served the Baals;
12 and they aforsook the Lord God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt; and they followed bother gods from among the gods of the people who were all around them, and they cbowed down to them; and they provoked the Lord to anger.
13 They forsook the Lord aand served Baal and the Ashtoreths.
