The Israelites Cross the Jordan River (3:1–5:1) from Lexham Context Commentary: Old Testament

The Israelites Cross the Jordan River (3:1–5:1)

The river is in its springtime flood stage, but the waters miraculously part when the priests step into them, and all Israel crosses on dry ground (Exod 14:22).

Two memorials are built out of standing stones: one in the river and one beyond, at Gilgal.

There the men are circumcised, and Passover is celebrated.

Gilgal will remain a rallying point for Israel (Josh 10:7, 43; 1 Sam 11:14; 2 Sam 19:15)
