The Narrative Of The Initial Penetration Into The Land Of Canaan
The narrative of the initial penetration into the Land of Canaan
The miracle stories of crossing the Jordan and the conquest of Jericho are well known and elicit the most heated debate and the strongest emotions. The waters of the Jordan are said to have piled up at Adam, near Zarethan (Josh 3:15b–16), traditionally located at Tell ed-Dâmiyeh. This is logical in itself as the clay banks in that area, north of the juncture with the Jabbok from the east and the Wâdi Far‘ah from the west, could easily block the course of the river for a period of time. The new Cisjordanian base of operations was established at Gilgal, a site that acquired importance as a cultic center (see Josh 4:19).
