Israel crosses the Jordan
With the river in flood, the Jordan stopped flowing as soon as the priests carrying the ark stepped in, and Israel crossed into Canaan on dry ground.
The priests who bore the ark of Yahweh’s covenant stood firm on dry ground in the middle of the Jordan; and all Israel crossed over on dry ground, until all the nation had passed completely over the Jordan.
Joshua 3:17 (World English Bible)
God told Joshua three times to be strong and courageous. The priests led with the ark, and the waters piled up upstream near the town of Adam. The whole nation crossed, and Joshua set up twelve stones from the riverbed at Gilgal so future children would ask what they meant.
Forty years after the Red Sea, a new generation experienced the same kind of miracle as their parents.
