Joshua 4:4
"and command them, saying, ‘Take from out of the middle of the Jordan, out of the place where the priests’ feet stood firm, twelve stones, carry them over with you, and lay them down in the place where you’ll camp tonight.’”"
Key Reflection
This command to take twelve stones from the Jordan River symbolizes the Israelites' crossing into the Promised Land as a sacred act, much like their journey out of Egypt. These stones serve as a tangible reminder of God's miraculous intervention and his continued presence and covenant with the people.
