Joshua 3: Israel On The Move!

The time has come at last!  Israel sets out from Shittim and makes camp on the banks of the Jordan.  Now they are finally ready to receive their inheritance.  With Joshua in command and the priests going on before carrying the Ark, God has yet one more miracle up his sleeve.  When the priests get their feet wet in the Jordan, the river stops flowing upstream so that the nation may walk over on dry land (vs. 14-17).  The people all pass by the Ark in the middle of the dried-up Jordan, giving them a sure sign that the Lord is with them.
