Joshua 4:14-17

GOD MAGNIFIES JOSHUA. (Joshua 4:14-24)

On that day the Lord magnified Joshua in the sight of all Israel—It appeared clear from the chief part he acted, that he was the divinely appointed leader; for even the priests did not enter the river or quit their position, except at his command; and thenceforward his authority was as firmly established as that of his predecessor.
