Addresses on the Book of Joshua
Overview
The book of Joshua is distinctly the book of the inheritance. We see redemption in Exodus, holiness in Leviticus, trial and testing in Numbers, the government of God in Deuteronomy. The book of Joshua, and the subject of inheritance, naturally follows. From desert wanderings to settlement in Canaan, to the change in leadership from Moses to Joshua, to the reiteration of God’s faithfulness, H. A. Ironside’s commentary on Joshua describes the process by which the Israelites made their inheritance from God their own.

Dr. Ironside was appointed to the boards of numerous Bible institutes, seminaries, and Christian organizations. He also served as director of the Africa Inland Mission. Ironside preached widely throughout the United States and abroad. He served as pastor of Moody Memorial Church from 1930 to 1948, and during his lifetime, he preached more than 7,000 sermons to over 1.25 million listeners.

“God saw her heart, overruled the blunder she was making to protect His servants, and eventually revealed Himself to her.” (Page 29)
“It was not until the Lord’s Resurrection that believers were delivered from the law. Joshua typifies the risen One leading us on into the privileges of the new creation.” (Page 11)
“We cannot depend on another ministering to us; we must study the Word for ourselves. One who does not give time daily to meditation on the Word and to waiting on God in prayer will never be a strong Christian; he will never lay hold of that which the Lord intends him to enjoy as he is linked up with a risen Christ.” (Page 22)
“How often similar conditions have prevailed even in the churches of God in this dispensation of grace! Hidden sin, unconfessed, unjudged, has made the people of the Lord as weak as water when they came in conflict with their satanic foes.” (Page 79)

H. A. Ironside (1876–1951) is one of the twentieth century’s greatest preachers. He has received honorary degrees from Wheaton College and Bob Jones University and was frequently invited to lecture at Dallas Theological Seminary.
After a serving as a Salvation Army officer for a brief period, Ironside joined the Plymouth Brethren and started what would become a highly successful itinerant ministry of preaching and teaching. He served as pastor at Moody Memorial Church from 1930 to 1948, and preached more than 7,000 sermons during his lifetime.
Harry A. Ironside produced close to 100 major books and pamphlets, mainly on expository and prophetic themes. He was a major figure in the popularizing of dispensationalism among American evangelicals and for the most part followed the views of the Scofield Reference Bible. Ironside’s first-edition commentaries, most-loved sermons, addresses, lectures, and tracts are available in The Works of H. A. Ironside (65 vols.).
