In this chapter, we see a great military strategy. However, why did God have everyone go? The town wasn't any larger than the first time, and now the sin had been removed from Israel. Consider that though the town wasn't any larger, the impact on Israel in that they had a defeat did affect the entire nation. Now the entire army would be a part of a victory. There is also that since AI had a victory, their forces would be fighting with more confidence, and a confident enemy can be harder to fight. God created a plan that armies have used to this day. When it was done, Joshua made sure the people remembered it was God who gave them the victory.
