This map shows the northern campaign in the conquest of Canaan, when the kings of northern Canaan gathered against Israel after Joshua's victories in the south. The Canaanite forces assembled near the waters of Merom, with cities such as Hazor, Madon, Shimron, Achshaph, and Dor connected to the coalition. The red arrows show Israel advancing northward from the region of the Jordan River and Sea of Galilee, defeating the Canaanites at Merom, then pursuing them as far as Great Sidon and back toward the Valley of Mizpeh. The map shows the events of Joshua 11, where the LORD gave Israel victory over a powerful northern alliance and Joshua burned Hazor, the chief city of that region. It highlights both the military challenge Israel faced and the LORD's faithfulness in giving them the land He had promised.
