“Pass through the host, and command the people, saying, Prepare you victuals; for within three days ye shall pass over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land, which the Lord your God giveth you to possess it.”
Pass through the camp and command the people, saying, 'Prepare your provisions; for in three days you are to pass over this Jordan, to go in and take possession of the land that the LORD your God is giving you' — the three-day timeframe creates urgency while allowing for practical preparation. The reference to 'provisions' acknowledges the mundane realities of military movement. The phrase 'that the LORD your God is giving you' reiterates that the land is God's gift, not the fruit of Israel's military conquest alone.
