📚 Contexto Histórico
This conversation occurred when the Gibeonites approached Joshua's camp disguised as travelers from a distant land, hoping to make peace with Israel. The Gibeonites had heard about Israel's military victories and feared for their lives, so they devised a deception to avoid being destroyed. Joshua was being cautious because God had commanded Israel not to make treaties with the local Canaanite peoples.
