Josué 5:10 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 5:10

And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal
Not after their circumcision, but before, and where they continued encamped during that, and until the passover had been kept by them; this was little more than a mile from Jericho, (See Gill on Joshua 4:19);

and kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at even;
exactly as it was ordered to be observed, and was observed when first kept, ( Exodus 12:6 ) ;

in the plains of Jericho:
a proper place both for their encampment, and the celebration of the passover, and where very likely they met with lambs enough for their purpose, which belonged to the inhabitants of Jericho; or however being now got into the good land, they needed not, and were under no temptation of sparing their own: historians agree, as Strabo ^F5, Josephus ^F6, and others, that Jericho was seated in a plain.

Josué 5:10 In-Context

8 Después de ser circuncidados, todos los varones descansaron en el campamento hasta que sanaron.

9 Luego el Señor
le dijo a Josué: «Hoy he hecho que la vergüenza de su esclavitud en Egipto salga rodando como una piedra». Por eso, ese lugar se llama Gilgal
hasta el día de hoy.

10 Mientras los israelitas acampaban en Gilgal, sobre la llanura de Jericó, celebraron la Pascua al atardecer del día catorce del primer mes.

11 Justo al día siguiente, empezaron a comer pan sin levadura y grano tostado, cosechado de la tierra.

12 El maná dejó de caer el día que empezaron a comer de las cosechas de la tierra y nunca más se vio. Así que, desde ese momento, los israelitas comieron de las cosechas de Canaán.
