If Deds's brother is Josh, who is Debs???
anyone know the answer please

[woofgang]

Did Joshua at the battle of Jericho have a sister? I know there is a biblical Deborah but am ashamed to say that is the limit of my knowledge

I looked at my trusty concordance and there are only 4 mentions of Deborah in the Bible. One was Rebekkah's nurse and the other three references appear to be the same person, namely a judge of Israel. So I don't think its that Josh, but a good guess all the same woofgang

Is this one of those lateral thinking brain teasers? How about Debs is Josh's sister?

[MangoRose]

I think that this question has been misread. It asks about DeD's. Dedanims had a brother called Joshbekasha. Deborah's father was Eshtemoa, son of Joazaniah. Thyatira, his sister married Zidonians who was brother of Jaazaniah and begat Sechenias who was half sister to Deborah and nephew of Joshbekasha. Deborah later married Xanthicus and had a son Tanhuneth and a daughter Shimronites. Shimronites son was Habaziniah.

I don't know if Str 11ker is impressed but I certainly am Mangorose

[archbishop]

A great book for a bit of begatting is The Bible.

Sorry, but I think Mangorose made that up! Full marks for ingenuity though.
