{Joshua 4:18} And it came to pass, x1961 when the priests 3548 that bare 5375 z8802 the ark 727 of the covenant 1285 of the LORD 3068 were come up 5927 z8800 out of the midst 8432 x4480 of Jordan, 3383 [and] the soles 3709 of the priests' 3548 feet 7272 were lifted up 5423 z8738 unto x413 the dry land, 2724 that the waters 4325 of Jordan 3383 returned 7725 z8799 unto their place, 4725 and flowed y3212 z8799 x1980 over x5921 all x3605 his banks, 1415 as 8543 [they did] before. 8032
the soles:
"And it shall come to pass,¹ as soon as the solesª of the feetª of the priestsª that bearª° the arkª of the LORD,ª the Lordª of all¹ the earth,ª shall restª° in the watersª of Jordan,ª [that] the watersª of Jordanª shall be cut offª° [from] the watersª that come downª° from above;ª¹ and they shall standª° upon anª heap.ª" {Jsh 3:13} + "And as they that bareª° the arkª were comeª° unto¹ Jordan,ª and the feetª of the priestsª that bareª° the arkª were dippedª° in the brimª of the water,ª (for Jordanª overflowethª°¹ all¹ his banksª all¹ the timeª of harvest,)ª" {Jsh 3:15}
lifted up:
Heb. plucked up
that the waters:
As soon as the priests and the ark were come up out of Jordan, the waters of the river, which had stood on a heap, flowed down according to their natural and usual course, and again soon filled the channel. This make it abundantly evident, that the miraculous change which had been given to the river was not from any secret natural cause, but solely by the power of God, and for the sake of his chosen people; for when Israel's host had passed through, and the token of his presence was removed, immediately the waters went forward again, so that if it be asked, "What aileth thee, O Jordan, that thou wast driven back?" it must be answered, it was in obedience to the God of Israel, and in kindness to the Israel of God. "And the LORDª saidª° unto¹ Moses,ª Stretch outª°¹ thine handª over¹ the sea,ª that the watersª may come againª° upon¹ the Egyptians,ª upon¹ their chariots,ª and upon¹ their horsemen.ª ... And the watersª returned,ª° and coveredª°¹ the chariots,ª and the horsemen,ª [and] all¹ the hostª of Pharaohª that cameª° into the seaª afterª them; there remainedª° not¹ so much asª oneª of them." {Exd 14:26-28}
and flowed:
Heb. went, "And as they that bareª° the arkª were comeª° unto¹ Jordan,ª and the feetª of the priestsª that bareª° the arkª were dippedª° in the brimª of the water,ª (for Jordanª overflowethª°¹ all¹ his banksª all¹ the timeª of harvest,)ª" {Jsh 3:15} + "These¹ [are] they¹ that¹ went overª°¹ Jordanª in the firstª month,ª when it¹ had overflownª°¹ all¹ his banks;ª²° and they put to flightª°¹ all¹ [them] of the valleys,ª [both] toward the east,ª and toward the west.ª" {1Ch 12:15} + "And he shall passª° through Judah;ª he shall overflowª° and go over,ª° he shall reachª° [even] to¹ the neck;ª and the stretching outª of his wingsª shall fillª the breadthª of thy land,ª O Immanuel.ª²" {Isa 8:8}
