I'll be the one to say it: The Divine-Authorized Conquest Of The Holy Land is a horrendous, toxic narrative that has done profound damage throughout history.. but we have rather clear scholarly consensus that it didn't actually happen. So what's going on with this story? Where did it come from, and why? Lifeisasacredtext.com

Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg (theradr@mstdn.social)'s status on Wednesday, 14-Feb-2024 06:18:16 JST Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg

So. Time that a rabbi said it, so I'll be that guy:
The Divine-Authorized Conquest Of The Holy Land is a horrendous, toxic narrative that's been used to justify untold atrocities, including now.
AND it never happened.
Looking at what likely DID happen may actually be critical at this moment.
