In what campaign did god extend the day this allowed Israel to rout the enemy

Sagot :

Answer: Against the five Amorite Kings

Explanation:

As the Israelites journeyed from Egypt to Canaan, they had to fight a number of nations who had come out to destroy them so that they would not reach Canaan. Gideon was no such nation. Gideon decided to make peace with Israel so that they would not suffer defeat.

When the other Amorite Kings including the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish and Eglon heard of it they went to attack Gideon which sent messages to Joshua(leader of Israel) asking for help.

Joshua arrived to save his allies and defeated the Amorites but because night was coming and the Amorites would escape under cover of darkness, Joshua ordered the sun to remain where it was and give Israel another day so that they could completely defeat the Amorites. God granted this and Israel was able to rout the enemy.
