Listen to Josué 3:1
1 Y Josué se levantó muy de mañana; y él y todos los hijos de Israel partieron de Sitim y llegaron al Jordán, y acamparon allí antes de cruzar.

Josué 3:1 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 3:1

And Joshua rose early in the morning
The morning after the spies had returned and made their report; which, as Kimchi rightly observes, was the ninth of Nisan; for on the morrow, which was the tenth, the people passed over Jordan, see ( Joshua 3:5 ) ( 4:19 ) . Moses, according to the Jewish writers, died on the seventh of Adar or February; the thirty days of his mourning ended the seventh of Nisan or March; two days before they were ended the spies were sent, who returned on the eighth day of the month; and the morning following Joshua rose early, which shows his readiness and alacrity to proceed in the expedition he was directed and encouraged to:

and they removed from Shittim, and came to Jordan;
from Shittim in the plains of Moab, to the river Jordan:

he and all the children of Israel;
he as their general, and they an army of six hundred thousand fighting men under him, besides women and children, and others that came along with them:

and lodged there before they passed over;
lay there encamped a night before they passed over the river Jordan.

Josué 3:1 In-Context

1 Y Josué se levantó muy de mañana; y él y todos los hijos de Israel partieron de Sitim y llegaron al Jordán, y acamparon allí antes de cruzar.
2 Y sucedió que al cabo de tres días los oficiales pasaron por medio del campamento;
3 y dieron órdenes al pueblo, diciendo: Cuando veáis el arca del pacto del SEÑOR vuestro Dios y a los sacerdotes levitas llevándola, partiréis de vuestro lugar y la seguiréis.
4 Sin embargo, dejaréis entre vosotros y ella una distancia de unos dos mil codos . No os acerquéis a ella para saber el camino por donde debéis ir, porque no habéis pasado antes por este camino.
5 Entonces Josué dijo al pueblo: Consagraos, porque mañana el SEÑOR hará maravillas entre vosotros.
