Numbers 13:1–14:45 and Deuteronomy 1:19–45 both tell the story of the Spies. Whereas Numbers 13:1–2 says that God told Moses to send men to spy out the land of Canaan, in Deuteronomy 1:22–23, Moses recounted that all the Israelites asked him to send men to search the land, and the idea pleased him.

Joshua 14 is the fourteenth chapter of the Book of Joshua in the Hebrew Bible or in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. [1] According to Jewish tradition the book was attributed to Joshua, with additions by the high priests Eleazar and Phinehas, [2] [3] but modern scholars view it as part of the Deuteronomistic History, which spans the books of Deuteronomy to 2 Kings, attributed to ...
