Joshua 3:8

Context
3:8 Instruct the priests carrying the ark of the covenant, ‘When you reach the bank of the Jordan River, 1  wade into the water.’” 2 

1 tn Heb “the edge of the waters of the Jordan.” The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied for clarity.

2 tn Heb “stand in the Jordan.” Here the repetition of the word “Jordan” would be redundant according to contemporary English style, so it was not included in the translation.
