Joshua 4:9 Then Joshua set up twelve stones in the middle of the Jordan at the place where the feet of the priests who carried the ark of the covenant were standing, and they are there to this day. (NASB ©1995)Genesis 28:18 So Jacob rose early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head and set it up as a pillar and poured oil on its top.
Joshua 24:26 And Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God; and he took a large stone and set it up there under the oak that was by the sanctuary of the LORD.
1 Samuel 7:12 Then Samuel took a stone and set it between Mizpah and Shen, and named it Ebenezer, saying, "Thus far the LORD has helped us." (NASB ©1995) Treasury of Scripture Knowledge And Joshua set up twelve stones in the midst of Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests which bare the ark of the covenant stood: and they are there unto this day.set up twelve Ex 24:12 28:21 1Ki 18:31 Ps 111:2-4 and they are there These words might be written by Joshua at the close of his life, or perhaps be added by some later prophet. It seems from this verse, that there were two sets of stones erected as a memorial of this great event: twelve at Gilga (ver. 20) and twelve in the bed of the Jordan; which last might have been placed on a base of strong stone work, so high as always to be visible, and serve to mark the very spot when the priests stood with the ark. Drs. Kennicott and Shuckford, however, would read here with the Syriac, mittoch, 'from the midst,' instead of bethoch, 'in the midst;' and render, `And Joshua took up the twelve stones (taken) from the midst of Jordan,' etc. But this reading is unsupported by and MS. yet collated; and it appears wholly unnecessary Ge 26:33 De 34:6 Jud 1:26 1Sa 30:25 2Sa 4:3 2Ch 5:9 Mt 27:8 28:15 Concordance Entries Agreement Ark Bare Bearing Bore Carried Covenant Firm Jordan Joshua Middle Midst Placed Priests Raised Spot Standing Stones Stood Twelve Jump to Previous Occurrence Agreement Ark Bare Bearing Bore Carried Covenant Jordan Joshua Middle Midst Placed Priests Spot Standing Stones Stood Twelve Jump to Next Occurrence Agreement Ark Bare Bearing Bore Carried Covenant Jordan Joshua Middle Midst Placed Priests Spot Standing Stones Stood Twelve New American Standard Bible Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, Calif.
