So I guess what you are saying is that men have always been passive and the ones that know what is good for them (and know how to keep peace) just let women have their way?

The question for us today is, will we be like the majority of Israel and continue to look in fear at the giants in the land and urge our fellow Christians to be "realistic," or will we be like Joshua and Caleb and faithfully follow our king, trusting to fulfill every one of his promises completely?
