Jos 10:6 | MHM | STEP | v. 6 : The Gibeonites sent a message to Joshua, asking for help because the five kings were coming to attack them ( v. 6 ). Even though they had tricked Israel before, the peace treaty was still in force. The Gibeonites trusted Joshua and expected him to protect them, since they were now Israel’s servants. This is like how we can ask God for help because we belong to Him (Psalm 119:94 ).
