5 Now when all the Amorite kings west of the Jordan and all the Canaanite kings by the Mediterranean heard how the Eternal had dried up the waters of the Jordan in front of the Israelites till they had got across, their hearts quivered and they were all dispirited, on account of the Israelites.
2 It was then that the Eternal said to Joshua, ”Make flint knives and circumcise the Israelites once more.” 3 So Joshua made flint knives and circumcised the Israelites at the Hill of Foreskins. 4 Joshua circumcised them for this reason. All who had left Egypt, all the male warriors, had died during the journey through the desert after leaving Egypt. 5 These who had left Egypt were circumcised, but none of the people who had been born in the desert after leaving Egypt had been circumcised. 6 For forty years the Israelites had journeyed in the desert until the whole nation of warriors who had left Egypt had perished, because they would not listen to what the Eternal said, and because the Eternal had sworn to them that he would not let them see the land which the Eternal had sworn to their fathers that he would give us, a land abounding in milk and honey. 7 So their children, whom the Eternal raised up instead of them, were circumcised by Joshua, since they had never been circumcised from time to time. 8 After the circumcising was over, the whole nation remained where they were in the camp till they had recovered. 9 Then said the Eternal to Joshua, ”And now I have rolled off you the scorn of the Egyptians.” Hence the name of the spot was called Rollstone (Gilgal), and is so called to this day.
10 When the Israelites were in camp at Gilgal they kept the passover on the evening of the fourteenth day of the month, on the steppes of Jericho. 11 The day after the passover they ate some of the produce of the land, unleavened cakes and roasted grain. 12 And that very day the manna ceased, once they ate the produce of the land; the Israelites no longer had manna, but ate hereafter the food of the land of Canaan. 13 Joshua was one day near Jericho when he raised his eyes and saw a man standing before him, holding a drawn sword. Joshua went up to him and said, ”Are you for us, or are you for our enemies?” 14 ”No,” he answered, ”I am here as the captain of the host of the Eternal.” Then Joshua fell on his face to the ground and worshipped, saying, ”And what has my Lord to say to his servant?” 15 The captain of the host of the Eternal said to Joshua, ”Remove your sandals from your feet, for the place where you are standing is sacred.” Joshua did so.
