God Magnifies Joshua’s Authority

Joshua 3:7-13
7
ADONAI said to Y'hoshua, "Starting today, I will make you great in full view of all Isra'el; so that they will know that just as I was with Moshe, so I will be with you.
8
Now you are to order the cohanim carrying the ark for the covenant as follows: 'When you come to the edge of the Yarden River, you are to stop in the Yarden itself.'"
9
Y'hoshua said to the people of Isra'el, "Come here, and listen to the words of ADONAI your God."
10
Then Y'hoshua said, "Here is how you will know that the living God is here with you and that, without fail, he will drive out from before you the Kena'ani, the Hitti, the Hivi, the P'rizi, the Girgashi, the Emori and the Y'vusi:
11
the ark for the covenant of the Lord of all the earth is going on ahead of you across the Yarden.
12
Now choose yourselves twelve men out of the tribes of Isra'el, one man for each tribe.
13
As soon as the cohanim carrying the ark of ADONAI, the Lord of all the earth, put the soles of their feet in the water of the Yarden, the water of the Yarden will be cut off upstream and stand piled up like an embankment."
