This article examines the theme of divine violence in Josh 10:7-15. In the introductory part, the problem of interpreting the Book of Joshua from the perspective of the New Testament is outlined and the central question about the possible agreement of the message of Josh 10:7-15 with the teaching of Jesus Christ is posed. Then, the positions of selected scholars regarding the structure of the text are presented and Herok presents his own proposal. Then, analysis of the passage – focusing on the issue of divine violence – answers the initial question.
