Contextual Overview

¹⁰ The priests carrying the Ark continued standing in the middle of the river until everything was done that the Lord had commanded Joshua to tell the people, just as Moses had told Joshua. The people hurried across the river. ¹¹ After they finished crossing the river, the priests carried the Ark of the Lord to the other side as the people watched. ¹² The men from the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and East Manasseh obeyed what Moses had told them. They were dressed for war, and they crossed the river ahead of the other people. ¹³ About forty thousand soldiers prepared for war passed before the Lord as they marched across the river, going toward the plains of Jericho. ¹⁴ That day the Lord made Joshua great in the opinion of all the Israelites. They respected Joshua all his life, just as they had respected Moses. ¹⁵ Then the Lord said to Joshua, ¹⁶ "Command the priests to bring the Ark of the Agreement out of the river." ¹⁷ So Joshua commanded the priests, "Come up out of the Jordan." ¹⁸ Then the priests carried the Ark of the Agreement with the Lord out of the river. As soon as their feet touched dry land, the water began flowing again. The river again overflowed its banks, just as it had before they crossed. ¹⁹ The people crossed the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month and camped at Gilgal, east of Jericho.
