“And command ye them, saying, Take you hence out of the midst of Jordan, out of the place where the priests’ feet stood firm, twelve stones, and ye shall carry them over with you, and leave them in the lodging place, where ye shall lodge this night.” Joshua 4:3 KJV
I just came across this in doing my word study of “Feet” this is a very interesting verse because these stones are the 12 Apostles. “And ye shall carry them over with you”. Could this symbolize the carrying over from the other side of the flood? But, it says “out of the mist of Jordan”. “Out of the place where the priest stood firm”. I think this would symbolize standing firm for the Word of God. Me and my friend have studied the “Red Sea”, which symbolizes Baptisim with the blood of Jesus.
But, I do not think we have yet got into Jordon, and what that means. So, that will have to be something that we will have to study further. Blessings to you.
Continue my study on this:
“And as they that bare the ark were come unto Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bare the ark were dipped in the brim of the water, (for Jordan overfloweth all his banks all the time of harvest,)” Joshua 3:15 KJV
“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.” Joshua 4:9 KJV
“And it came to pass, when the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD were come up out of the midst of Jordan, and the soles of the priests’ feet were lifted up unto the dry land, that the waters of Jordan returned unto their place, and flowed over all his banks, as they did before.” Joshua 4:18 KJV

- Geronda, why do Jews, reading the Old Testament, do not believe In Christ?
“Why won’t you go and tell them this?” The Jews of Iskoni had fanaticism. They understand something to understand, but they are blinded by selfishness, if they are a little more attentive, none of them would have remained Judea.
- And how did they interpret the read?
- How did they interpret it and how they interpret it? They turn spiritual meanings into material. [Go], for example, see how they interpreted the words of the Prophet Isaiah “The desert of Jordanov will flows” [7]. In order to show that the desert “flocked”, they turned some kind of river, made terraces, gardens, planted bananas, lemons, oranges, planted everything, so now they say: “The desert has boosted!” And they all explain in this way. Meanwhile, these words of the Prophet relate to the revival of the world through holy baptism – “Bath of Pakyty.”
