When Joshua stopped the sun or whatever, how come nobody in other countries noticed?

Question

We wouldn't think of questioning the Bible, so it seems the only conlusion is that the other cultures, notably the Egyptians, the Assyrians, the Babylonians, the Phoenicians, the Chinese, etc., were not paying attention.
Question: can I get some info on that?

Or maybe when they were doing their obseravations and writing stuff down, they said "This is too weird, we better just pretend it didn't happen."

But the Hebrew folk wrote it down, cause Joshua said 'Write it down! I stopped the sun! Write it and proclaim it! Put it in the Bible that I stopped the sun."

Answer 1

Actually any cultures have legends that seem to be based on this event. For example, there is a Greek myth of Apollo’s son, Phaethon, who disrupted the sun’s course for a day. Since Joshua 10 is historical, cultures on the opposite side of the world should have legends of a long night. In fact, the New Zealand Maori people have a myth about how their hero Maui slowed the sun before it rose, while the Mexican Annals of Cuauhtitlan (the history of the empire of Culhuacan and Mexico) records a night that continued for an extended time.

Miracles rest on testimony, not on scientific analyses. It is interesting to speculate on how God might have performed any particular Biblical miracle, including Joshua’s long day, Jesus resurrection ect. There is not one logical, scientific reason to claim that, given a God powerful enough to create a universe in six days, Joshua’s long day ‘could not have happened’.

Answer 2

Other places DID notice it. In the Americas (before they were the Americas) there is a story about when the sun would peak at the horizon and then go back down in the same place. It never made it up and across the sky. This happened for a few days, and it takes place (I don't know how scientists know this) at around the same time as Joshua's stopping of the sun.

Answer 3

I think Joshua was the only one eating the mushrooms.

Answer 4

When its midnight in the east its not midnight in the west.

Answer 5

maybe it didn't literally happen.
