Yehoshua 4 - Summary
(Text) - After Bnei Yisrael crossed the Jordan, Yehoshua commanded one man for each tribe to collect the twelve stones from the River where the Kohanim stood. Then Yehoshua proclaimed that these stones will be a symbol to the future generations that the waters of the Jordan split in front of G-d’s aron when Bnei Yisrael crossed the Jordan. After the entire nation finished crossing, and the symbolic rocks were taken, the carriers of the Aron went up from the water. immediately, the two and ½ tribes that were to fight on the front lines assembled in front of the nation in preparation for the capture of Jericho. Most importantly, just as Hashem promised, Yehoshua’s stature grew in the eyes of the nation, who now viewed him as they viewed their past leader, Moshe.
