Joshua 3

[MEST] Joshua 3
Study Guide

Parallels > Obvious parallels can be drawn between crossing the River Jordan and crossing the Red Sea _ The parting of the Red Sea is one of THE most famous experiences of Moses’ leadership. Now God STARTS Joshua’s story with the SAME miracle. This sign was God’s way of showing the people that Joshua was the new leader.

[Read Joshua 3]
Why do you think it was important for the ark to go into the river first and remain there until everyone had crossed?


Parting and crossing the Jordan was very visual, how do you think this would affect the Isrealites? And the Canaanites?


The River Jordan marks the beginning of something new for the Isrealites. Can you think of another example of when the Jordan did this?
