‏ Joshua 4:12

The Crossing Finished

Those who entered the Jordan first come out last. They carry the ark, the certain protection against death. After the rest that has characterized all the preparation, the crossing happens fast, “the people hurried”. There is a desire to enter the promised land.

Among the whole people that crosses, there are also the militant men of the two and a half tribes. They are faithful to the promise they have made before (Num 32:27) and of which Joshua recently reminded them (Jos 1:12-15).
