That this may be a sign among you, that when your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What mean ye by these stones?
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 6 is found in chapter 4 of Joshua. After the crossing, God commands twelve stones to be taken from the Jordan, one for each tribe. The stones serve as a visible memorial for future generations. Their purpose is not simply to preserve the memory of a military achievement, but to teach children that God miraculously brought Israel through the Jordan. Joshua also sets up a second group of stones in the middle of the river, reinforcing the symbolic dimension of the place where divine intervention became associated with national memory.
