God's Perfect Track Record

Joshua appeals to the people's own undeniable experience, stating they know 'in all your hearts and in all your souls' that God has a perfect track record. Commentators highlight that this isn't just a general statement; every single specific promise God made about entering the land and receiving its blessings had come to pass. This serves as the foundation for all future trust and obedience.
