Contextual Overview
1 And it came to pass, when all the people were clean passed over Jordan, that the Lord spake unto Joshua, saying, 2 Take you twelve men out of the people, out of every tribe a man, 3 And command ye them, saying, Take you hence out of the midst of Jordan, out of the place where the priests' feet stood firm, twelve stones, and ye shall carry them over with you, and leave them in the lodging place, where ye shall lodge this night. 4 Then Joshua called the twelve men, whom he had prepared of the children of Israel, out of every tribe a man: 5 And Joshua said unto them, Pass over before the ark of the Lord your God into the midst of Jordan, and take you up every man of you a stone upon his shoulder, according unto the number of the tribes of the children of Israel: 6 That this may be a sign among you, that when your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What mean ye by these stones? 7 Then ye shall answer them, That the waters of Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the Lord ; when it passed over Jordan, the waters of Jordan were cut off: and these stones shall be for a memorial unto the children of Israel for ever. 8 And the children of Israel did so as Joshua commanded, and took up twelve stones out of the midst of Jordan, as the Lord spake unto Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel, and carried them over with them unto the place where they lodged, and laid them down there. 9 And Joshua set up twelve stones in the midst of Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests which bare the ark of the covenant stood: and they are there unto this day.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And it came to pass, when all the people were clean passed over Jordan,.... As related, Joshua 3:17;
that the Lord spake unto Joshua, saying: as follows.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER IV
When the people are passed over, Joshua commands twelve men, one
taken out of each tribe, to take up a stone on his shoulder out
of the midst of the river, and carry it to the other side, to
be set up as a memorial of this miraculous passage, 1-7.
They do so, and set up the stones in the place where they encamp
the first night, 8, 9.
The priests stand in the river, till all the people are passed
over, 10, 11.
Of the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the half tribe of Manasseh,
40,000 fighting men pass over with the other tribes, 12, 13.
Joshua is magnified in the sight of the people, and they fear
him as they did Moses, 14.
The priests are commanded to come up out of the river, which, on
their leaving it, immediately returns, and overflows its banks
as before, 15-18.
This miraculous passage takes place the tenth day of the first
month, 19.
The stones are set up in Gilgal, and Joshua teaches the people
what use they are to make of them, 20-24.
