What is the difference between moses crossing the red sea and Joshua crossing the Jordan river?

Moses crossing the Red Sea was a miraculous event where God parted the waters for the Israelites to pass through on dry land, while Joshua crossing the Jordan River involved the priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant to stop the flow of the river, allowing the Israelites to cross on dry ground. The crossings symbolize God's power and presence with the Israelites in their journey to the Promised Land.


How wide was the Jordan river when the Israelites crossed it to enter the promised land?

We cannot know the exact width at that time, because a river is constantly changing; but we do know that it was overflowing it's banks at that time, thus making it wider than normal (as seen in Joshua 3:15). Also, it should be noted that the Israelites crossed through it on dry land miraculously with God's help similar to when they crossed the Red Sea when fleeing from the Egyptians.


How did the Hebrews cross the Jordan into Canaan?

Answer 1They didn't. The Jordan River is on the eastern border of Israel. The Ancient Hebrews entered from the South, through the desert.(Unless you are talking about Abraham's family, in which case, they did come from the East, but the Torah doesn't mention anything about how they crossed the river).Answer 2Although the Israelites entered what is today Israel through the Negev desert, they actually crossed into what is today Jordan and then crossed over the Jordan from the east. (This is the "long-way 'round".) This is recounted in the early part of the Book of Joshua and they crossed on dry land, similar to the crossing of the Reed Sea.As concerns Abraham's entry into Canaan, it is presumed that he entered Canaan via Lebanon and therefore would have been consistently west of the Jordan River.
