Le 23:10-16; De 16:1-9; Jos 3:13; Jos 4:18; Jos 5:10-12; 1Ch 12:15; Isa 26:6; Jer 12:5; Jer 49:19

NET © Notes

tn Heb “dipped into the edge.”

tn Heb “and the Jordan overflows all its banks all the days of harvest.”

sn The lengthy description of the priests’ arrival at the Jordan and the parenthetical reminder that the Jordan was at flood stage delay the climax of the story and add to its dramatic buildup.
