Wanem nao showimaot army bilong Israel tekovarem Jericho insaed shortfala taem nomoa?

Then God mekem olketa strongfala wall bilong Jericho for foldaon, and olketa Israelite tekovarem datfala taon. Waswe, olketa savveman faendem eni samting wea showimaot army bilong Israel tekovarem Jericho insaed shortfala taem nomoa, olsem Bible talem?

For faendem staka grain olsem hem samting wea no savve happen staka taem.”
