BS"D KNOW YOUR BIBLE: Joshua Chapters 3-4
Study Notes by Avraham ben Yaakov

JOSHUA CHAPTER 3: THE CROSSING OF THE JORDAN

"The sea saw and fled, the Jordan turned backwards…" (Psalm 114:3)

Psalm 114 compares the greatness of the miracle of the splitting of the Jordan, enabling the Children of Israel to cross easily on dry land into their homeland, to the greatness of the splitting of the Red Sea, whereby they had been saved from their Egyptian enslavers. Likewise Joshua, who presided over the splitting of the Jordan, is specifically compared in today's text to Moses, who raised his staff to split the sea (Joshua 4:14). However it was not his staff that Joshua raised. Instead he instructed the Children of Israel to follow the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord of all the Earth.

AZAMRA Bible: Joshua Chapters 1-2

KNOW YOUR BIBLE Joshua Chapters 1-2

SHALOM!!! WELCOME!!! Today, 25 Tishri 5773 (10 October 2012) we begin the SEVENTH ANNUAL KNOW YOUR BIBLE STUDY CYCLE, and with G-d's help we will each weekday throughout the coming year study 2 chapters of the Nevi'im (Prophets) and Ketuvim (Holy Writings), thereby completing the entire NaCh in one year, concluding on Simchat Torah, 22 Tishri 5774 (26 September 2013). (Please note that our study cycle does not include Psalms.)

It is fitting to begin the BIBLE-IN-A-YEAR study cycle now since we are fresh from Simchat Torah, when we concluded the annual reading of the Five Books of Moses and immediately started over with Bereishis (Genesis 1). Likewise on Simchas Torah we read Joshua 1 as the Haftara – the supplementary reading from the prophets – thereby taking the first step in studying the NaCh (Nevi'im, "The Prophets" and Ketuvim, "The Writings). Today we embark on our regular daily study of 2 chapters of NaCh with Joshua Chapters 1-2.

The practice of studying 2 chapters of NaCh daily starting immediately after Simchat Torah and finishing the following Simchat Torah is recommended in "Yesod VeShoresh HaAvodah" ("Foundation and Root of Service") by Rabbi Alexander Ziskind of Horodna (d. 1794), a guide to devotion endorsed by all streams of Torah Jewry (see Gate 6 Chapter 2, The Order of Study).

Just as we are today commencing this study cycle, so may we pursue it daily until we complete it with God's help. "Let no error befall us and let us not stumble in any matter of law. Let us not call that which is impure pure or that which is pure impure, nor that which is permitted forbidden, nor that which is forbidden permitted. Let none of us stumble: may we only rejoice in one another. For HaShem will give wisdom: from His mouth are knowledge and understanding. Open our eyes and let us behold wonders from Your Torah!"


JOSHUA CHAPTER 1

"MOSES MY SERVANT IS DEAD"

The Book of Joshua is the direct continuation from the end of Deuteronomy which narrates the death of Moses. Prior to his death, Moses had already said to Israel: "For I know that after my death you will surely go to ruin and depart from the path that I have commanded you, and evil will befall you at the end of days because you have done evil in the eyes of HaShem to anger Him with the work of your hands" (Deut. 31:29).
