Jericho is a city in [[Palestine]] by the [[Jordan River]].
In the book of [[Joshua]], Jericho is taken by the Israelites with the help of God. Joshua 6.20 "When the trumpets sounded, the people shouted, and at the sound of the trumpet, when the people gave a loud shout, the wall collapsed; so every man charged straight in, and they took the city." When archaeologists excavated Jericho, they found that the walls had indeed fallen, not inward as they normally would because of battering rams on the outside, but outward. It is impossible for the walls of an attacked city to fall outwards without a miracle.
