OET (OET-RV) “Take those twelve men that the people selected from each tribe,

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 4:1–5:1 The Israelites commemorated the crossing of the Jordan River

Twelve men from among the Israelites each took a stone from the middle of the Jordan River. With these stones Joshua built a monument to remind the Israelite people, and their descendants, about how God helped them cross the river.

Here are some other possible section headings:

Setting up memorial stones

Twelve memorial stones

A reminder that God brought them to the promised land

4:2

This verse is a repetition of the command that Yahweh gave to Joshua in 3:12. It is repeated because the emphasis of this story is on how the representatives of the twelve Israelite tribes set up memorial stones.

4:2a

“Choose twelve men from among the people,

Choose twelve men: The Hebrew verb that the BSB translates as Choose is imperative. It means that Yahweh commanded Joshua to choose twelve men.

from among the people: The phrase from among the people means that Joshua was to choose the men from among the Israelites.

4:2b

one from each tribe,

one from each tribe: The phrase one from each tribe means that Joshua must choose one man from each of the twelve Israelite tribes.

tribe: See how you translated this term in 1:12|.

uW Translation Notes:
