Joshua4:6-7

Jos 4:6-7

This (viz., their taking the twelve stones with them and setting them up) was to be a sign in Israel; the stones were to serve as a memorial of the miraculous crossing of the Jordan to all succeeding generations. For the expression “if your children ask to-morrow (in future),” etc., see Exo 13:14; Exo 12:26-27, and Deu 6:20-21.
