Abstract
This article considers the cumulative effect of the variants in the Greek text of Joshua 24 under the understanding that its Hebrew Vorlage represents a text distinct from what became the Masoretic Text (MT). The best explanation for the textual phenomena in Joshua 24 may be the persistence of two Hebrew texts that were mutually informative among the communities that received the book of Joshua and the Former Prophets. This essay will attempt to demonstrate the value of text pluriformity in text-critical decisions and in the compositional strategy represented in these texts.
