Joshua leads the whole community to a camp beside the river and waits as the leaders give clear instructions: follow the priest carrying the ark of the covenant, keep a short distance behind, and let the ark guide the people. In harvest season, the Jordan is swollen and overflowing its banks. The priests enter the water at the river’s edge, initiating the crossing.","032 The Israelites Cross the Jordan  \nJoshua 3:1-5:12  \nEnglish Spiritual  \n032 The Israelites Cross the Jordan  \nEnglish  \n© 2020 Wycliffe Bible Translators, Inc.  \n[http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/)  \nYou are free to make commercial use of this work.
