Was Canaan conquered quickly or only gradually?
Joshua 10:42 All these kings and their lands Joshua conquered in one campaign, because the Lord, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.The southern campaigns (10:29-43) went rapidly (cf. 10:14), but the northern ones (Josh. 11) took longer.Joshua 11:18 Joshua waged war against all these kings for a long time.
