Joshua 3:2 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 3:2

And it came to pass after three days
At the end of the three days they were bid to prepare food for their expedition, and to go over Jordan, ( Joshua 1:11 ) ;

that the officers went through the host;
the camp of Israel; very probably the same as in ( Joshua 1:10 ) ; this was, no doubt, by the order of Joshua, and who was directed to it by the Lord.

Joshua 3:2 In-Context

1 igitur Iosue de nocte consurgens movit castra egredientesque de Setthim venerunt ad Iordanem ipse et omnes filii Israhel et morati sunt ibi per tres dies

2 quibus evolutis transierunt praecones per castrorum medium

3 et clamare coeperunt quando videritis arcam foederis Domini Dei vestri et sacerdotes stirpis leviticae portantes eam vos quoque consurgite et sequimini praecedentes

4 sitque inter vos et arcam spatium cubitorum duum milium ut procul videre possitis et nosse per quam viam ingrediamini quia prius non ambulastis per eam et cavete ne adpropinquetis ad arcam

5 dixitque Iosue ad populum sanctificamini cras enim faciet Dominus inter vos mirabilia
