5:2 Before the Israelites turned their attention to Jericho, God directed Joshua to perform the covenant renewal ceremony of circumcising all the males born in the forty years since the exodus from Egypt.

• Flint is found in a natural state, so flint knives were mandated for circumcision as a symbol of purity or holiness.
