Joshua 4Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)
After the whole nation had finished crossing the Yarden, Adonai said to Y’hoshua, “Take for yourselves from the people twelve men, a man from every tribe; and give them this order: ‘
Take twelve stones from the middle of the Yarden riverbed, where the cohanim are standing, carry them over with you and set them down in the place where you will camp tonight.’”
12 men? 12 and 12?
Y’hoshua called the twelve men whom he had chosen from the people of Isra’el, a man from every tribe, and said to them,
“Go on ahead of the ark of Adonai your God into the riverbed of the Yarden. [b]Then, each of you take a stone on his shoulder, corresponding to the number of tribes of the people of Isra’el. This will be a sign for you. In the future, when your children ask, ‘What do you mean by these stones?’you will answer them, ‘It’s because the water in the Yarden was cut off before the ark for the covenant of Adonai; when it crossed the Yarden, the water in the Yarden was cut off; and these stones are to be a reminder for the people of Isra’el forever.’”
The people of Isra’el did just as Y’hoshua had ordered. They took twelve stones out of the Yarden riverbed, as Adonai had said to Y’hoshua, corresponding to the number of the tribes of the people of Isra’el, carried them over with them to the place where they were camping, and set them down there.
Y’hoshua also set up twelve stones in the Yarden River itself, in the place where the feet of the cohanim carrying the ark for the covenant had stood.[/i]
Ya‘akov and Yochanan, the sons of Zavdai, came up to him and said, “Rabbi, we would like you to do us a favor.”
He said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?”
They replied, “When you are in your glory, let us sit with you, one on your right and the other on your left.”
But Yeshua answered, “You don’t know what you’re asking! Can you drink the cup that I am drinking? or be immersed with the immersion that I must undergo?”
They said to him, “We can.”
Yeshua replied, “The cup that I am drinking, you will drink; and the immersion I am being immersed with, you will undergo. But to sit on my right and on my left is not mine to give. Rather, it is for those for whom it has been prepared.”
When the other ten heard about this, they became outraged at Ya‘akov and Yochanan. But Yeshua called them to him and said to them, “You know that among the Goyim, those who are supposed to rule them become tyrants, and their superiors become dictators. But among you, it must not be like that! On the contrary, whoever among you wants to be a leader must be your servant; and whoever wants to be first among you must become everyone’s slave! For the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve — and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
They came to Yericho;
How many have looked at the meaning of the name yarden(Jordan rv.)
Pin what made you ask this question? did you see where I had spoken of the (females unmentionables)in the soil of Israel and the flaming .. ( male unmentionables) that will go around and over on the promised borders lines. but there is also that part that he takes Jordan and Edom ( his bath and throws his shoe?).. so add this to the flaming stuff and ... what Jordan means? yep.. you got it. probably better not mention it because you will get booted/ banned for(?) days for saying all those unmentionables, ( you know all those virgin-ous ears around here, nothing else about them is but their ears or maybe their eyes? ).
This word has been used many times in the scriptures.
forefather? Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God The Lord our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
Not with our forefathers did the Lord make this covenant, but with us, we, all of whom are here alive today. Face to face, the Lord spoke with you at the mountain out of the midst of the fire:
I was wondering if anyone has endeavored to grasp the Understanding of the sequential circumstances and lessons that each generation leaves a person with.
