The Conquest of the Land

• Start — Joshua 6:20. The year the conquest of the Land began is the year Israel enters the Land = 2555
• End — Joshua 14:15. The year Israel's conquest of the Land ended is the year they entered the Land (2555) + 7 years of conquest = 2562

START:[Shulman date p107] [Ussher date p50] END:Caleb was 40 years old (JOS 14:7) when he spied out the Land in 2517. He was 85 at the end of the conquest in 2562. The difference between the incident of the spies and the end of the conquest is 45 years. Israel continued wandering in the wilderness for 38 of those years. So, 45 - 38 = 7 years of conquest.

Years are anno hominis — counted from Creation as year 1 — which is the frame the source computes in. The arithmetic behind each boundary is given above rather than assumed.
